Our Estro-Px provides comprehensive herbal support during times of rapid hormonal changes such as the menopausal transition. The unique combination of herbal extracts contains extremely high levels of phytoestrogens, naturally-occurring plant substances that bind to estrogen receptor sites and promote estrogen-like activity. In addition, this formula has uterotonic properties and may help to maintain healthy prolactin and progesterone secretion. The primary herb Pueraria mirifica is extracted at a 100:1 ratio. This strong concentration can quickly improve hormonal status and improve mild or moderate symptoms. Pueraria mirifica constituents include Puerarin, Miroestrol, Daidzein, and Genistein -- all researched individually and collectively to promote hormonal balance and support optimal bone strength and density. Beta-Sitosterol is a common occurring natural plant sterol credited with hormonal balancing effects.
In addition to numerous hormonal balancing effects, this formula also offers calming support during emotional swings associated with times of hormonal fluctuations. The Lemon Balm in this formula offers nervous system support and acts in part, due to effects on maintaining dopamine in the brain. Dopamine is both mood enhancing and plays a significant role in the metabolism of pituitary hormones including prolactin. The Black Pepper Extract in this formula improves the uptake and assimilation of the sterols and active constituents in the entire formula.
