Black Cohosh

Black Cohosh

Black Cohosh is an herb native to North America, and harvested primarily for its root. It rose to popularity in the 1950s and was used widely as a remedy for symptoms of menopause (hot flashes, night sweats, mood swings), PMS, menstrual cramps, osteoporosis, anxiety and cold symptoms.

When the root part of the black cohosh plant is consumed, whether through a tea or supplement, it has similar effects to estrogen in multiple parts of the body and serotonin in the brain. Our own Femina+ contains Black Cohosh, along with other vital herbs proven to alleviate perimenopause, menopause and premenstrual symptoms.

Note: always consult a physician before starting a supplement if you are currently taking synthetic hormones or other medication for your symptoms.
