We love Wild Yam Cream for Menopausal and Peri-menopausal Symptoms
Navigating through menopause or perimenopause can be a challenging journey for many women. From hot flashes to mood swings, the symptoms can disrupt daily life and leave you feeling hot, tired and cranky. While there are various treatment options available, I like a natural remedy to manage these changes. One such remedy which, if your feed is like mine you’ll be seeing a lot of on Insta Reels and TikTok is wild yam cream. There’s only so much information you can get in 30 seconds so let’s take a look at the benefits of wild yam cream in a bit more detail. I like and stock Nature's Goodness Australia Wild Yam Cream with Chaste Tree Berry.
What is Perimenopause and Menopause
OK so before we get into the cream – here’s a quick run-down on Menopause and Perimenopause so we all know which is which! Menopause marks the end of a woman's reproductive years, typically occurring around the age of 50. Perimenopause, on the other hand, is the transitional phase leading up to menopause, characterized by hormonal fluctuations and symptoms such as irregular periods and hot flashes. Perimenopause can be really tricky – it is after all the “second puberty” with hormones all over the place and can feel like your body is hijacking everything from you sleep to your emotions, your sex drive, your waistline, your skin and of course your temperature! It is also a time when your risk of cardiovascular disease and osteoporosis increase but to decrease those risks and reduce symptoms with HRT means increasing your risk of breast cancer, albeit a small one.
Managing Symptoms Naturally
While hormone replacement therapy (HRT) is a common approach to managing menopausal symptoms, it’s not a consideration for a lot of women because they’re not into using synthetic drugs to manage their health and it’s not suitable for everyone due to potential risks and side effects. This has led many women to explore natural alternatives like wild yam cream. Wild yam contains phytoestrogens, plant-based compounds that mimic the effects of oestrogen in the body. These phytoestrogens can help alleviate symptoms like hot flashes, night sweats, and mood swings by providing hormonal balance.
One notable product in the realm of wild yam cream is Nature's Goodness Australia Wild Yam Cream with Chaste Tree Berry. This Australian-made cream is formulated with natural ingredients, making it suitable for sensitive skin. What sets it apart is its rich content of phyto-estrogens, with each 1g containing 15% wild yam extract equivalent to 450mg of fresh wild yam root. Moreover, it's free from petrochemicals, synthetic colours or fragrances, and parabens, making it a safe and effective choice for women seeking natural relief.
The benefits of Wild Yam Cream extend beyond hormonal balance. Its natural formulation ensures that it nourishes the skin while providing relief from menopausal symptoms. By applying 3-5g of the cream to the stomach, neck, breasts, inner thighs, and inner arms twice daily, women can experience a reduction in hot flashes, improved mood stability, and overall well-being. Additionally, the inclusion of Chaste Tree Berry further enhances its efficacy in managing hormonal imbalances associated with menopause.
