About Our Ingredients
• Elderberries are rich in nutrients and antioxidants that are anti-inflammatory and fight free
radical damage, reducing oxidative stress on cells. Elderberry has been found to have antibacterial
and antiviral properties, as well as health promoting and antidepressant properties. * (1)
• Catnip has traditionally been used to treat gastrointestinal upset, including indigestion, cramping
and gas. It also has a calming effect and may help reduce anxiety and nervousness. * (2)
• Fennel seeds are rich in nutrients, antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties, and may
soothe muscles in the stomach, helping to prevent gas and aid digestion. * (2)
• Chamomile contains antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. Chamomile may reduce
acidity in the stomach, and protect against diarrhea, stomach ulcers, nausea, and gas, likely due to
its anti-inflammatory effects. * (2)
• Peppermint may ease digestion, help alleviate tension headaches, relieve clogged sinuses, fight
bacterial infections, and improve sleep. * (2)
• Ginger uses include improving digestion, reducing nausea, and helping fight flu and the common
cold. Ginger has anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects and is particularly useful for relieving
nausea and vomiting and is frequently used to treat chronic indigestion. * (2)

INGREDIENTS: Oregon Grape, Blessed Thistle, Cramp Bark, False Unicorn, Ginger, Raspberry Leaf, Squawvine, Uva Ursi, Cayenne

This formula is meant for women in their childbearing years and the years preceding menopause. It will often, if taken for a month or two, straighten out irregular periods, heavy clotting, profuse flow, menstrual cramping, premenstrual headaches, and premenstrual tension. Many times, once the underlying hormone issues that are causing the above symptoms have cleared up, infertility issues also disappear.

YW is also helpful with kidney, liver, and bladder problems in women, and is essential for prolapsing uterus or bladder situations.

Consider Sepia homeopathic in addition to this formula.
