I just heard today that Damiana (Mexican herb) is good for hot flashes and symptoms of menopause. Has anyone tried and had success with this alternative therapy?
Although I haven't used it myself from what I understand, Damiana probably isn't the best herb to take to combat hot flashes. Damiana contains androgen derivatives, which is a male hormone.
If your looking for a herb to level off your oestrogen or help reduce hot flashes try clary sage.
