Black Cohosh is a member of the buttercup family and is also known by the Latin name Cimicifuga racemosa which is derived from the Latin cimex (the generic name for bedbug) and fugare (to drive away).
Menopause - Black Cohosh has been shown to decrease the secretion of luteinizing hormone (LH). As a woman reaches the menopause there is an increase of LH and decrease of oestrogen production which can result in hot flushes and vaginal dryness. Therefore the use of Black Cohosh can help to redress the balance.
Menstrual Problems - has been shown to be useful for both painful and difficult menstruation and may help alleviate menstrual cramps. The herb also has anti-anxiety and calming effects on the nervous system which can be beneficial during the menstrual cycle.
Rheumatism - has traditionally been used to help reduce the inflammation and soreness associated with rheumatism.
Cough - has been shown to help relax the bronchial tubes and ease the urge to cough and has been used by herbalists to treat persistent coughs such as those seen in asthma, bronchitis and whooping cough.
