Women's health
Do any of these sound depressingly familiar?
-
You have repeated bouts of cystitis. Antibiotics may (or may not) clear up each one, but don't prevent the next
-
You dread the days leading up to your period because PMS makes your life a misery
-
Your periods are so painful they seriously disrupt your life each month
-
You have heavy periods - your doctor may even be recommending surgery because you are becoming anaemic
-
Menopausal symptoms are making your life a misery, but you either don't like the idea of HRT,
or you've tried it and it doesn't suit you.
If any of those sound like you, a herbalist may well be able to help. Herbs that gently rebalance hormones
can often greatly improve PMS, period problems and menopausal symptoms.
Recurrent cystitis may be due to
chronic infection or can sometimes be an autoimmune condition (where the body is attacked by its own immune system). In
either case, a herbalist will be able to prescribe a combination of herbs to relieve symptoms and in some
cases remove the underlying problem.
