Herbs for Women

I have quite a few favorite herbs but the most essential herb for me as a woman is black cohosh now that I'm approaching the menopausal years. Before that it was Vitex (aka Agnus Castus, Chasteberry, or Chastetree berry).

Black Cohosh is the main ingredient in most of the herbal preparations for women in or entering into menopause.

Vitex is the main ingredient in most herbal preparations for pre-menstrual syndrome.

Both of these herbs are essential for women depending on their age and whether they suffer from some of the more typical female problems.
