The root can be used to help support "female problems", because it can help to balance hormones. It contains natural estrogen and helps promote the flow of normal menstrual blood and is beneficial in cases of painful or delayed menstruation. It can be used to help soothe ovarian cramps and womb cramping. Black Cohosh should not be used by pregnant women, but midwives use it at the end of pregnancy to encourage labour and help with childbirth pains. It soothes the nervous system and contains solicylates that make it anti-inflammatory. Black Cohosh has been used in supporting rheumatic pains, joint pain, muscular pain, sciatic, neuralgia, high blood pressure, hot flashes, stuffy/runny nose, asthma and other respiratory problems .

Dosage; Hot tea brewing method: Bring freshly drawn cold water to a rolling boil. Place 1 teaspoon for each cup into the teapot. Pour the boiling water into the teapot. Cover and let steep for 3-7 minutes according to taste (the longer the steeping time the stronger the tea).

Iced tea brewing method (to make 1 liter/quart): Place 6 teaspoons into a teapot or heat resistant pitcher. Pour 1 1/4 cups of freshly boiled water over the tea. Steep for 5 minutes. Quarter fill a serving pitcher with cold water. Pour the tea into your serving pitcher straining the leaves. Add ice and top-up the pitcher with cold water. Garnish and sweeten to taste. [A rule of thumb when preparing fresh brewed iced tea is to double the strength of hot tea since it will be poured over ice and diluted with cold water].
