MenoHerb® is a traditional herbal medicinal product used for the relief of symptoms of the menopause such as hot flushes, night sweats and temporary changes in mood (such as nervous irritability) exclusively based upon long-standing use as a traditional remedy. In the UK, the average age for a woman to reach the menopause is 52. A woman is said to have reached the menopause once she has not had a period for one year. During the time leading up to the menopause several hormonal and biological changes occur. As a result of these hormonal changes, many women experience both physical and emotional symptoms. MenoHerb® is the only registered traditional herbal medicine sold in the UK containing Black Cohosh rhizome and root. Black Cohosh is a perennial plant native to North America that is also known as Squaw root or Black snakeroot. The herb has been used for centuries by native Americans for a wide range of female conditions.
