Description
The acrid, bitter, and mildly toxic rhizome of the blue cohosh plant (also known as the papooseroot or squawroot) affects the liver with emmenagogue, antispasmodic, diuretic, diaphoretic, and anthelmintic properties. Blue cohosh has demonstrated usefulness for menstrual irregularities, genito-urinary disorders, and intestinal worms. The biochemical properties of the herb include alkaloids, a fungicidal saponin, glycosides, gum, starch, salts, phosphoric acid and a soluble resin.
Blue cohosh is primarily used for menstrual irregularities, amenorrhea and dysmenorrhea, and also to ease the pangs of childbirth.
While not related, both black and blue cohosh are often found growing in close proximity and both have similar emmenagogic, antispasmodic properties. Black cohosh is thought to have more estrogenic action while blue cohosh is more of an actual blood mover.
A gynecological formula for delayed or stopped menses is equal parts blue cohosh, black cohosh, angelica, cramp bark, wild ginger and half part ginger. Take as a tea or powder three times daily for at least three months, stopping only during the actual period itself.
While, as the name "papoose root" suggests, it can be used immediately before or during childbirth, usually as a tincture to ease childbirth, it should not be used during the first and second trimesters of pregnancy.
