A member asked:
Taking a daily recommended dose of black kohash relieves 80% of my symptoms...can i conclude that my symptoms are hormone level related?

Probably, but...: A 2003 study (and others) showed that Black Cohosh has no estrogen related effects. Symptom relief in menopausal women may be due to that fact that the plant's compounds bind to serotonin receptors in the brain. In the end, whether your symptoms are due to low serotonin or estrogen fluctuation is unclear without knowing all of your symptoms. Lab testing can help, but symptoms are most important.

Your question is a: bit vague. Black Cohosh is known to help with PMS symptoms and symptoms of menopause. These symptoms are usually hormonal related. Bioidentical hormones can also help in these situations. Hope this helps.
