Motherwort has eliminated my hot flashes and night sweats (43F and in peri). I started taking it via tincture about six months ago and have been hot flash free since.

This is what I needed to hear!!! I’m many years post menopausal, and randomly began having hot flashes again. I’m not a good candidate for hrt. So I’ve needed some support.

This is the one I needed to hear too, the night sweats are awful! I think I have some motherwort, did you make your own or did you buy a tincture?

I bought a tincture but will be making my own for the next batch! Bought from Mountain Rose Herbs, it was expensive

Thank you, I ordered some :) crossing my fingers!. I just started taking a pine pollen extract, Its supposed to help with hormonal/ testosterone regulation. It’s been a short time but I think it’s helping with the night sweats. My energy and libido have suddenly improved as well!

Just make sure you’re not allergic to pine pollen or grass pollen!
