St. Johns Bush for Endometriosis
When it comes to painful periods, it’s easy to dismiss them as normal. While some mild cramping is expected as your uterine lining sheds, your periods should be, at worst, a minor inconvenience. Periods that leave you bedridden, suffering from severe pain, relying on pain medication, or even seeking medical care are clear signs of underlying health issues.
Endometriosis is a condition where tissue similar to the lining inside your uterus begins to grow outside it. This can occur on organs like the ovaries, fallopian tubes, digestive system, and even the outside of the uterus. It affects 1 in 10 women and is particularly common among Black women.
Endometriosis is an inflammatory condition, with symptoms ranging from excruciatingly painful periods to chronic pain, fatigue, brain fog, digestive issues, anxiety, depression, and a generally diminished quality of life. In severe cases, it can lead to organ damage and infertility.
Hormonally, endometriosis is often linked to estrogen dominance, and St. John’s Bush has the potential to lower estrogen levels while increasing progesterone. Additionally, endometriosis can cause heavy and excessive menstrual bleeding, leading to a rapid loss of blood cells and potentially resulting in anemia. St. John’s Bush can help replenish iron levels, support blood health, and counteract anemia.
