Can the hormones balance oils be used for tweens?

Kerry, this was several years ago, but I was using the essential oils in my facial serum, at a 1% dilution. I know that experts generally recommend inhalation over topical use, but the EOs were actually chosen to address problem skin issues so were doing double-duty. I discovered the beneficial effects on my PMS and periods as a happy accident.

Jaime, how did you apply the clary sage and geranium oils? I would like to treat the very same symptoms, as you described. Thanks!

I’m planning to make some butters for women … peri and menopausal … found that Clary Sage created bloating. Is this something that’s expected? I read elsewhere that Clary sage raises estrogen levels and I other places that it levels it out. Which is right?

Are you still breastfeeding? I once went 15 months without a period. I’m pretty sure your period will come back in due time. I’ve never heard of anyone whose period never came back after having a baby.

Can the PMS Hormonal Balance Blend be used in a carrier oil? If so, can you give quantities please?

For example, Evening Primrose is noted as a great balance of female hormones – but the wrong dose or taking for too long without cycling off for effectiveness, can really make hormones worse. That happened to me with both Evening Primrose and Vitex (Chasteberry).

If you Google Dr. Gabrielle Traub, you may find her lectures very interesting/helpful. She is who gave the free seminar I attended. I can’t afford to have a consultation at their clinic, but just the info they shared w/us was so helpful, it pointed me in the right direction!

I purchased this one before: https://www.amazon.com/Essential-Synergies-Singles-Therapeutic-Grade/dp/B005YETQMA/ref=as_li_ss_tl?th=1&linkCode=ll1&tag=wellnessmama-20&linkId=efb64f02507e0e561c6e495a4b2791e3&language=en_US

Hi Katie,
Thank you so MUCH for your wonderful website. I have a request for you. I know that MRE is probably the best source (financially and from a health perspective) from which to buy essential oils, but I am only a student right now and don’t have the kind of money needed to buy things in bulk.
I know that there are some brands whose EOs you purchase sometimes from Amazon in particular. If you would please, please, let me know which brands these are I would be most grateful.
Thank you for all your wonderful research….

I just started taking maca powder due to irregular periods. I know I have a hormone imbalance and am perimenapausal. How long did it take before you noticed a difference? I have to be careful because I’ve had numerous breast lumps (benign) and recently an ultrasound (my period lasted a month…)
showed a thickening of my uterus. I had an endometrial biopsy which came back fine. My doc suggested HRT but I will not do that! I just want to be normal ?

Best advice Katie has is balancing hormones by taking coconut oil and Maca powder as part of a daily diet, and drinking the raspberry leaf tea. I used to suffer heavy painful periods before trying this advice, and it’s made such a difference.
