Black cohosh for hot flashes…

Black cohosh is an herbal remedy that has been attributed many medicinal and therapeutic properties.

Black cohosh extract is most famous for its consituents that may relieve the symptoms associated with menopause such as hot flashes, night sweats, and menstrual cramps.

How does black cohosh for hot flashes work?

It is believed that black cohosh may diminish the levels of a hormone that is produced in higher amounts during menopause, called luteinizing hormone (or LH). The increase of LH is argued to be one of the causes of hot flashes and other menstrual symptoms. Therefore, by lessening the levels of luteinizing hormone, black cohosh may help lessen the severity of hot flashes.

Black cohosh is also noted for its ability to alleviate the symptoms of PMS. Black cohosh also contains anti-inflammatory properties, and, therefore, may help bring relief to muscle pains and aches.

Other benefits and uses include treating coughs — it clears out bodily mucus — and as a treatment for tinnitus, a condition in which the ears exhibit a chronic ringing.
