        I have a family member feeling emotionally unstable. She’s been on birth control for six years, so no monthly cycle for years. Her IUD was removed in January,  Now the cycling has started, and is promoting crying for days straight. I suggested she get some chamomile and chaste tree tea, and look for ashwagandha. What have others tried in a situation like this?

          I read that Lemon Balm, Ginseng, and Rosemary are good herbs to help when emotional and it gives support to your body.

          Oh, what peace we often forfeit, Oh, what needless pain we bear,
          All because we do not carry, everything to God in prayer!

            Siberian ginseng can help a lot with neurotransmitters and with endocrine issues. Ashwagandha is good too. Dong Quai and chaste tree would likely help as well.

            If her cycles are irregular or harder than they should be have her look at the Female Normal Cycle formula. We don’t sell it but the recipe is here:

            Don't use herbs or combine herbs with medications or use them during lactation or pregnancy without talking with your healthcare provider.

              You might want to look into some mushrooms as well.  Something like Reishi
