HORNY GOAT WEED WOMEN: The purported health and sexual benefits of horny goat weed date back thousands of years.

Horny goat weed contains chemical compounds known as phytoestrogens, which some suggest can influence both hormonal and bone health.
HORNY GOAT WEED WOMEN LIBIDO SUPPORT: The most well-known benefit of maca root is its potential to increase libido. There is some scientific evidence to support this claim. For example, an older study from 2002 found that subjects who took 1.5 or 3 grams (g) of maca per day experienced increased libido compared to those who received a placebo. A 2015 study found that maca root may help reduce sexual defficiency in postmenopausal women.
HORNY GOAT WEED WOMEN SEXUAL FUNCTION SUPPORT: Loss of sexual desire can be a results of biological, physical or psychological problems. One of the causes of sexual dysfunction in both men and women is hormonal imbalance. Epimedium may reverse these imbalances in some people by heightening the feeling of arousal.
HORNY GOAT WEED WOMEN ANTI FATIGUE: Traditional medicine has long used epimedium as a remedy for fatigue. Some report an elevation in energy and mood while taking epimedium. Epimedium does not treat the underlying causes of fatigue disorders. Seek medical attention if your fatigue is severe or long lasting.
HORNY GOAT WEED WOMEN DIGESTIVE HEALTH SUPPORT: Polypodium vulgare may also help boost digestive health and relieve a number of common gastrointestinal complaints. It is believed to stimulate the production of bile and may be useful in helping conditions like indigestion as well as boosting the appetite. Polypodium may also work as a gentle, natural laxative and is believed to be a safe, natural remedy for constipation.
HORNY GOAT WEED WOMEN MOOD BOOST: Maca contains flavonoids, which are thought to improve mood and reduce anxiety. A study in 14 postmenopausal women found that maca may reduce feelings of anxiety and depression. Also, a 2015 study found that maca could reduce symptoms of depression in postmenopausal women.
HORNY GOAT WEED WOMEN MENOPAUSE SYMPTOM CONTROL: Some proponents of maca root believe it may help balance levels of the hormone estrogen. During perimenopause, the stage before a woman reaches menopause, estrogen levels fluctuate and cause a variety of symptoms. One study found that postmenopausal women who took two daily tablets containing maca experienced reduced symptoms, such as hot flashes and night sweats.
HORNY GOAT WEED WOMEN BONE HEALTH SUPPORT: Phytoestrogens are plant-based estrogens found in horny goat weed and other plants. Because they have the ability to mimic estrogen, some people believe that phytoestrogens benefit postmenopausal women experiencing bone loss as a result of low estrogen levels. Researchers reported that horny goat weed extract appeared to help reduce bone loss. Bone turnover markers (the measure of how well bone is being remodeled) were significantly better in the phytoestrogen group compared to the placebo group.
