Herbs for Hormonal Balance – Natural Support for Periods, Perimenopause & Beyond

Hormones aren’t just about periods and menopause.

They influence our mood, sleep, skin, weight, energy levels, libido, and clarity of thought. When your hormones are out of balance, it affects everything.

At Oxford Herbal, I support women of all ages—whether you're struggling with PMS, fertility, perimenopause, or postmenopausal symptoms—using herbal medicine that works with your body, not against it.

Common Signs of Hormonal Imbalance

  • Mood swings, irritability, or anxiety

  • Weight gain or bloating

  • Hot flushes or night sweats

  • Irregular or heavy periods

  • Low libido

  • Foggy brain or fatigue

  • Sleep issues or restless nights

How Herbs Can Help

Some of the plant allies I work with include:

  • Vitex (Vitex agnus-castus) – to gently balance cycles and support progesterone

  • Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera) – to regulate stress hormones and reduce overwhelm

  • Sage (Salvia officinalis) – to ease hot flushes and night sweats

  • Motherwort (Leonurus cardiaca) – to soothe heart palpitations and mood swings

Every woman is different, so your remedy will be crafted specifically for you.

A Whole-Body Approach to Hormonal Health

I also consider emotional terrain, diet, and constitutional patterns using iridology, tongue analysis, and terrain theory. This gives a full picture—not just a hormonal snapshot.
