Discover a Menopause Natural Treatment and Avoid Hormone Replacement Therapy

By Amanda Fairwood

These days many women are training themselves on the best menopause natural treatment that does not involve the synthetic hormones that are so regularly prescribed. Although hormone replacement therapy is still used widely in the U. S. to scale back the negative symptoms related to menopause, many females are becoming increasingly wary about this form of treatment that has reported adverse effects which include cancer.

The stellar news is that many of the non-pharmaceutical menopause natural remedies are efficient and safe and can be purchased discreetly from your home.

The most well liked forms of menopause natural remedies are herbal. They can be presented in aromatherapy treatments, creams, oils, gels, teas, tablets or ointments. They are effective because they mimic the body's own hormone production of estrogen and can cut back the fluctuation in hormone levels that cause menopause symptoms such as night sweats, low libido, insomnia, hot flashes, brain fogginess and mood swings to name a few. Most herbal formulas include maca root, dong quai, red clover or black cohosh.

In addition to these herbs being able to mimic female hormones such as estrogen, they also have their own unique qualities that are particularly advantageous as a menopause natural treatment. For starters, black cohosh has had wonderful results in reducing the intensity and frequency of night sweats, hot flashes and vaginal dryness.

Furthermore, it appears to work miracles with evening out the temperament and reducing mood swings. Maca root is famous for bringing back a healthy libido. Dong quai works really well together with black cohosh and fights sleeplessness too. In addition, red clover has been known to cool down night sweats and enhance the cardiovascular system. Another herb that is growing in popularity with its useful benefits as a natural menopause treatment is clary sage. It is understood to have a regulating result on hormones and is most often used in combination with geranium. Some experts claim that clary sage also helps menopausal headaches, nausea, tearfulness, moodiness, distension, indigestion and depression.

If you choose a menopause natural treatment in lieu of Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) make sure that you verify the origin of the herbs. Not all brands are equal in quality, efficacy or strength. Take some time to check the origin of the herbs when possible, review the guaranties and return policies of the companies that sell them and the objective reviews of those who have taken them. - 30307
