PMS, breast tenderness, irritability, and bloating before your period
Woman's Balance
Supports Relief From
Woman’s Balance supports hormonal and emotional harmony during the menstrual cycle and perimenopause. It helps relieve symptoms like breast swelling, mild cramps, bloating, and mood swings. Many find it helpful for irritability, frustration, or emotional stagnation linked to PMS or hormonal fluctuations.
In Traditional Chinese Medicine, these symptoms often reflect a pattern of liver qi stagnation—when the liver’s energy becomes constrained due to stress or emotional overload. This formula works to move stagnant liver qi, nourish liver blood and yin, and support spleen qi to bring the cycle back into balance.
How It Works Holistically
Western herbalism might interpret this formula as a mood-balancing, liver-supportive, and digestion-soothing blend. It addresses emotional and physical PMS symptoms by improving circulation, supporting hormone processing, and relieving gastrointestinal tension. Salvia and peony help reduce inflammation and soothe mild cramping, while poria and atractylodes ease digestive discomfort.
From a Chinese Medicine perspective, Woman’s Balance builds on the classic Xiao Yao Wan, used for emotional stress and hormonal imbalance. Bupleurum and cyperus move liver qi to relieve tension and stagnation. Peony, salvia, and dong quai nourish the blood, helping restore emotional ease and hormonal flow. Orange peel and gardenia disperse dampness and heat that may accumulate in the abdomen or breasts, while licorice harmonizes the overall formula.
When Woman’s Balance Is Right for You
Woman’s Balance is ideal when your cycle is accompanied by tension, bloating, breast swelling, or mood instability. It's also well-suited for those with mild menopausal symptoms or hormonal imbalance paired with digestive discomfort or emotional frustration. It works best when symptoms arise from emotional stress, overwork, or liver qi stagnation paired with blood deficiency. If fatigue or anemia is predominant, consider pairing with a more nourishing formula during the first half of the cycle.
