Black Cohosh:

The 2021 review of Black Cohosh, in the journal Climacteric, confirms the findings of previous studies, showing that:

• Black cohosh continues to be prescribed by medical doctors in many places around the world, as a safe and premiere treatment for menopausal symptoms (in Germany it is a prescription drug for menopause)
• In 2011, and again in 2018, the European Medicines Agency issued an official monograph indicating a positive benefit–risk ratio for the use of Black cohosh in the treatment of menopausal symptoms, indicating that it is highly effective and side effects are rare and usually mild (GI upset, skin rash, headache).
• The researchers reviewed 35 clinical studies and one meta-analysis comprising of 43,759 women, of which 13,096 were treated with a standardized grade of Black cohosh.
• They showed that compared to placebo, women taking Black cohosh for menopausal symptom management had a significantly superior reduction in severity and frequency of a variety of menopausal symptoms, including some psychological symptoms.
• They also showed that compared to low-dose estrogen replacement therapy, women using Black cohosh experienced equal symptomatic relief and had fewer side effects than the women using estrogen hormone replacement.
• As they indicated, Black cohosh was better tolerated than low-dose estrogen therapy.
