Common Usage Hormonal & Menstrual Balance

  • PMS Symptom Relief: It is the "gold standard" for easing the emotional and physical symptoms of PMS, including breast tenderness, bloating, and irritability.
  • Regulating the Cycle: Used by aromatherapists to help normalize irregular menstrual cycles by supporting the pituitary gland’s function.
  • Menopause Support: Helps reduce the intensity and frequency of hot flashes, night sweats, and the mood swings associated with perimenopause and menopause.
  • Progesterone Support: It is traditionally used to encourage a healthy balance between estrogen and progesterone levels.

Emotional & Mental Wellness

  • Emotional Stability: Known as a "stabilizing" oil, it helps level out the "highs and lows" of hormonal emotional shifts.
  • Brain Fog & Concentration: Helps clear the "mental muddle" that often occurs during specific times of the monthly cycle or during the transition into menopause.
  • Postpartum Support: Used in very specific dilutions to help balance the "emotional rollercoaster" after childbirth (consult a professional for this use).

Skincare & Beauty

  • Hormonal Acne: Because it addresses the internal cause of breakouts, it is often added to nighttime facial oils to help clear acne that appears along the jawline and chin.
  • Skin Firmness: Its balancing effect on hormones can help maintain skin elasticity and thickness, particularly in aging skin.

Physical Comfort

  • Easing Breast Tenderness: When diluted in a carrier oil from clubarome.com and massaged gently into the chest area, it helps reduce cyclic pain.
  • Abdominal Comfort: Helps soothe the "heavy" feeling in the pelvic region before or during a period.

Contraindication Do not use during pregnancy or breastfeeding. Because of its influence on hormones, it should be avoided by those taking birth control pills, hormone replacement therapy, or medications for dopamine-related conditions (like Parkinson’s). Always dilute heavily (1% or less) for topical use.
