Rooted and Rising

Rooted in Rising Tincture

This blend is made to offer complementary benefits that address a wide range of hormonal and physical symptoms. They work through different mechanisms to support the body's natural hormone balance, rather than supplying hormones directly.

This is one of two blends we make for perimenopause. If this blend is not working, we suggest trying Happy Harmony Hormone, made with different herbs. Finding which herbs work best in your body is the key to success.

Why These Herbs:

Wild Yam (Dioscorea villosa): Traditionally used as an antispasmodic and anti-inflammatory agent, wild yam is often cited for its ability to ease muscle cramps and smooth muscle tension, including menstrual and pelvic pain. It contains diosgenin, a compound that can be used in a laboratory to create hormones like progesterone, and while the human body doesn't do this conversion internally, the compound is believed to interact with hormone receptors and support the glandular system, potentially offering relief from symptoms like hot flashes and vaginal dryness.

Chaste Berries (Vitex agnus-castus): This herb primarily works on the pituitary gland, which helps regulate the balance between estrogen and progesterone by influencing levels of other hormones like prolactin and luteinizing hormone (LH). By normalizing this balance, chaste berries may help alleviate common perimenopausal issues such as irregular periods, mood swings, anxiety, breast tenderness, and night sweats.

White Peony (Paeonia lactiflora): A staple in traditional Chinese medicine, white peony is valued for its ability to "nourish the blood, relax smooth muscles, and calm the nervous system. It contains paeoniflorin and phytoestrogens that can help regulate estrogen levels, improve blood flow, and reduce stress and anxiety often associated with perimenopause.

The combination is effective because the herbs address different aspects of perimenopause:

Chaste berries target the pituitary gland to influence overall hormone signaling.

Wild yam provides antispasmodic relief and a source of compounds that can interact with hormone receptors in target tissues.

White peony complements these by offering calming effects on the nervous system, reducing muscle tension and improving circulation, thus addressing both the physical and emotional symptoms of the transition
