Nature's Way, Wild Yam Root, 425 mg, 180 Vegetarian Capsules

This is the second time I've wrote a review, my first review rated this product very good I just wanted to say I went to Spain for a week and forgot to take my tablets when I came home my hot flushes returned with avengence, I have started them again knowing it takes a few weeks to get into the system so the moral of this story is they do really work for flushes anyone suffering as I do give them a go I highly rate them

I am a 43 year old woman, never had any children and started to have night sweats about a week or so ago (Oct 2013). I researched all over the web, read books and many different sites recommended taking wild yam. I took a chance on ordering Nature's Way and the day I received them in the mail, I took two as directed at approximately at 7pm and that night when I went to sleep, NO night sweats!!!! Thank goodness! So far, I've been taking them for several days and NOTHING! I sleep fine. Not hot or cold, just right. I am so grateful to have found these pills. Please note, I don't take any medications for any illness so please check with your doctor to make sure it will be ok for you to take wild yams and whatever other medication you are taking. Good LUCK!!I wanted to provide an update 5 months later since my original review. Since I am in the very early stages of menopause. I stopped taking 2 pills per day just to see if I would be ok. There were several reasons I decided to change the amount I took and one being; I wanted for my pills to last longer and two; since I'm in the early stages, I thought maybe my body didnt need both pills per day in my early stage? In the past month, I've been taking 1 every couple of days, maybe 4x per week. I'm happy to report that I'm still not having night sweats at night at all, thank goodness. I think every body is different and these pills may help you but of course it varies depending on the stage you are in menopause.A friend of mine that is about ten years older is about ten years into menopause and she gets hot flashes all day throughout the day. When she first started taking them, it did help with her hot flashes during the day. They were not as extreme as they were before but she hasn't taken them consistently. I'm not sure why she's chosen not to take them but her doctor did mention that your body may get accustomed to taking them so eventually they will not work. That's another reason I chose to scale back down to one pill a day or every couple of days. I want to be able to use them when I am getting hot flashes during the day.It's up to you if you want to invest in these pills. If you're in the early stages, there's a better chance of easing the night sweats or completely not having night sweats if your body reacts well to them.A family member that is also a doctor checked the pills for me and said they were safe to take because they were all natural. Again, every body is different so please check with your doctor. Hope they help you the way they did me.

I never in my life suffered from breakouts and then all of a sudden the beginning of last year I started to break out TERRIBLY! I was 31 at the time and had no idea what was going on. I noticed my breakouts were even worse right before my menstiral cycle and after. After a few months of back and forth if trying to figure out what was going on. I had a feeling it was hormonal and had seen a nautopath years ago and she recommended wild yam and kelp to regulate my hormones. It has been almost a year and there has been a 90% improvement in my skin!!! With all things natural it does take time! I saw a subtle difference approaching my second menstrual cycle after starting wild yam. I have shared before And after pictures. My before was at my worst in June 2017 and the after photo is from March 2018. I hope this can help others tht experienced what I did. It was such a terrible thing to go through at any age!

I take this along with Vitex Agnus Castus and Dong Quai, one tablet a day of each and I find this has greatly helped my menopause symptons which include mood swings, tiredness, bloating and hot flushes, these are all now either gone or hardly noticable, I have also found my sleep to be much improved. I only wake up once or twice a night now instead of five or six times so am feeling much more like me again.

These are for my partner,and I am assured they are a good product and a great price.
