Let's adjust hormones
From the adolescence to the last months of menopause, our body, like our mood, goes through periods of ups and downs. To make these periods more equal, many women begin to use natural non-medicament means, which remove unpleasant symptoms and improve the emotional state.
If you suffer from premenstrual syndrome, are in a state of premenopause, menopause, or you are worried about other hormone-related conditions, you can help the herbs.
St. John's wort against depression
The relationship between hormones and depression is not accidental. Estrogen - a substance that regulates the menstrual cycle, and hence our mood. Therefore, when his admission is late (at the end of the cycle or during the perimenopause), we are plunged into depression. St. John's Wort has been used for a long time and is effectively used for various depressions. Note: for dietary supplements containing 0.3 percent hypericin (active substance found in St. John's wort's perforated). The dose is 300 mg in capsules daily. If you are taking any medication, first consult your doctor.
Grizzly grass against the tides
Indians living in the United States have long used the root of rattlesnakes against the tides. Now it is used everywhere in the form of additives. Grass does not stimulate the growth of inactive cancer cells, which may be lurking in estrogen-sensitive tissues, so for women who have had ovarian or breast cancer, it is safe to take it. Pay attention: on dietary supplements containing rattlesnake. The usual dose is 20 mg in tablets twice a day. Take them for 6 months until you feel their effectiveness.
Double look at menopause
Two studies involving women from Germany and South Korea during menopause allowed scientists to find out that the use of Hypericum perforatum (Hypericum perforatum) and Cimicifuga racemosa (rattlesnake) weakened menopausal symptoms and made women's lives more comfortable. You can try first to apply a rattlesnake (Cimicifuga racemosa) and see if there is a relief: there is less tidal flow, if the dream has improved, whether the mood has improved. If symptoms do not go away within a month or two, you need to start treatment for depression by other means.
It makes no sense to take both these herbs at the same time, start with some one.
Double look at the pms
With the approach of pms, add to your diet more magnesium and calcium. Note: the addition of vitamin D improves the absorption of calcium.
Monkey pepper against irregular cycles
Vitex agnus-castus (monkey pepper) regulates blood flow, helping women suffering from irregular cycles. Monkey pepper is known to have no serious side effects, but like many other herbs that began to come to us in recent years from abroad, this remedy has not been sufficiently studied. Improvement of well-being takes place after six months of taking herbs.
Magnesium from bad mood
Magnesium can cope with most of the problems associated with PMS: from mood deterioration to the expansion of blood vessels. By the way, a lot of magnesium contains chocolate. This explains the increased demand for chocolate during the "critical days". Add to your diet more magnesium (in the form of dietary supplements). Use 200 mg daily in the first two weeks of the cycle, and in the last two - 400 mg.
Calcium against seizures
Modern studies have shown that calcium-rich foods can reduce the likelihood of developing PMS in women. Pay attention: to dietary supplements or vitamin-mineral complexes, rich in calcium.
