ANNA's Wild Yam Cream is a natural product traditionally used to support hormonal balance, relieve menstrual pain, and reduce the occurrence of menopausal symptoms like hot flashes and night sweats. It's made with Dioscorea villosa (wild yam) and other natural ingredients to promote overall hormonal well-being.
ANNAāS Wild Yam Cream is a topical formula applied directly to the skin. It offers a natural way to support your hormones. It may be used for:
Hot flushes
General menstrual discomfort
Mood and energy fluctuations
Monthly tension or discomfort
Perimenopausal and post-menopausal changes
ANNA'S Wild Yam Cream launched in February of 1997. It was one of the first blended wild yam creams on the Australian market. They use the highest quality ingredients available. Proudly still the same incredible formula! ANNA'S is listed in the ARTG, (AUST L 345273).
The active compound in wild yam (Dioscorea villosa) is diosgenin, a potent phytoestrogen that plays a role in activating the biochemical lipid pathway. This process, supported by various enzymes, results in the production of natural compounds such as ubiquinone, dolichols, squalene, and cholesterol. Notably, cholesterol serves as the precursor for the synthesis of all adrenal hormones.
Vitex agnus-castus, commonly referred to as Chaste Tree, Chasteberry, or Monk's Pepper, is an herb widely used for managing menstrual-related disorders, including symptoms of premenstrual syndrome (PMS) and menopause. It is approved for use in listed medicines in Australia.
In Western herbal medicine, Vitex agnus-castus has been traditionally utilized to alleviate menstrual cramps, spasms, and pain (dysmenorrhoea) and to help reduce the frequency or severity of menopausal symptoms.
