Female\nherbalists, who familiarized themselves with the healing properties of various plant\nlife, have existed in many cultures. To this day, certain herbs possess\nqualities that specifically benefit the female biology. It is the intention of\nthis post to highlight the top five herbs that are catered to women\u2019s wellness.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Women have to deal with changing hormones, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dherbs.com\/store\/menstrual-cycle-formula-p-48.html\">menstrual cycles<\/a>, fertility windows, pregnancy, and menopauses. These different stages in life can pose different challenges, and women can occasionally be unsure of how to handle them naturally. Using herbs is a great way <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dherbs.com\/articles\/4-teas-that-help-to-balance-female-hormones\/\">to naturally support female health<\/a>, especially since they don\u2019t contain synthetic hormones, chemicals, or other added ingredients that can cause a long list of side effects. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are almost too many herbs in existence, which is why we\nhave selected the ones that are most supportive to various stages of a woman\u2019s\nlife. Continue reading to learn more about those herbs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Red Raspberry Leaf<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This is an herb that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dherbs.com\/store\/the-female-cleanse-p-197.html\">supports all around female health<\/a>. In fact, it is been referred to as \u201cthe queen of herbs for women\u2019s health,\u201d according to the Bulk Herb Store. It is rich in iron, potassium, magnesium, calcium, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dherbs.com\/store\/vitamin-a-p-253.html\">vitamins A<\/a>, B, C, and E, most of which are beneficial for strengthening the uterus before and during pregnancy. The great thing about <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dherbs.com\/store\/ingredient_search.html?ingredient=Red+Raspberry+Leaf&amp;id=155#containing\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"57\" title=\"red raspberry leaf\">red raspberry leaf<\/a> is that the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dherbs.com\/articles\/these-food-combinations-help-you-absorb-more-nutrients\/\">body easily absorbs the iron and calcium<\/a>. Women who regularly drink red raspberry leaf tea have reported reduced PMS symptoms and healthy hormonal levels. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ashwagandha<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dherbs.com\/store\/ingredient_search.html?ingredient=Ashwagandha+Root&amp;id=198#containing\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"13\" title=\"Herbal products containing Ashwagandha Root\">Ashwagandha<\/a> has a long history of use in traditional Ayurvedic medicine, specifically because of the anti-stress and anti-anxiety benefits. Ashwagandha is an adaptogenic herb, meaning it adapts to the body\u2019s needs. For example, menopausal women often experience sleep disturbances and high stress levels, which can worsen hormonal imbalance. Ashwagandha has been known to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dherbs.com\/store\/central-nervous-system-p-17.html\">help calm the nervous system<\/a> and promote more restful sleep. What woman is going to say \u201cno\u201d to that?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Red Clover<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Menopausal women are often encouraged to use red clover because <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dherbs.com\/articles\/time-to-cool-off-natural-remedies-for-hot-flashes\/\">it may help reduce hot flashes<\/a>, mood swings, and night sweats. Red clover is a nutrient-dense herb that contains isoflavones and phytoestrogens, which are plant hormones that can reduce certain menopausal symptoms. The best way to get the most out of red clover is to use it fresh. The blossoms, which are the most potent part of the plant, can be eaten fresh in salads, or they can be brewed into a tea. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Dong Quai<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Popularly used in Traditional Chinese Medicine, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dherbs.com\/store\/ingredient_search.html?ingredient=Dong+Quai+Root&amp;id=234#containing\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"67\" title=\"Dong Quai Root\">dong quai<\/a> has been used as a liver and blood tonic because of the high mineral content. Many women have used it to help calm both menopausal and menstrual symptoms because it <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dherbs.com\/store\/uterus-formula-p-32.html\">helps to strengthen and balance the uterus<\/a>. Some female herbalists have referred to dong quai as one of the most useful female tonic herbs. Avoid taking it during pregnancy and during menstruation. Instead, take it a few days before the menstrual cycle. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Nettle<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Similar to red raspberry leaf, nettle or stinging nettle contains vitamins and minerals that support optimal female health. While the nutrients in nettle can be useful for any person who is feeling sluggish, these nutrients are especially beneficial for reducing PMS symptoms, supporting the body through menopause, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dherbs.com\/articles\/8-foods-that-increase-fertility-in-women\/\">assisting with fertility issues<\/a>. Nettle is a benevolent herb, but be careful when picking fresh nettle because the needles on the stems can sting you. <\/p>\n<p><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you are a woman and don&#8217;t know about these herbs, it&#8217;s time to read up on their importance because they have some amazing benefits for female health.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":14,"featured_media":108209,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2,47],"tags":[7239,7240,7241,8043,8807,8941,9454,1931,2643,3329,7218,7229],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v22.5 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>5 Herbs Every Woman Should Know About - Dherbs - The Best All Natural Herbal Remedies &amp;
