Black cohosh is used to:

• Treat menstrual cramps and pain
• Treat symptoms of menopause (permanent end of menstrual cycles) such as hot flashes
• Treat premenstrual (one or two weeks before period) symptoms such as bloating, mood swings, and irritability

Black cohosh also has other uses that haven’t been studied by doctors to see if they work.

Talk with your healthcare provider before taking black cohosh supplements. Herbal supplements can interact with some medications and affect how they work. For more information, read the “What else do I need to know?” section of this resource.
