Herbs for LGBTQIA+ Support & Trans Care

Herbs for LGBTQIA+ Support & Trans Care

We want to raise our voices in allyship towards our LGBTQIA+ friends and family members who benefit from the support of herbalism in so many ways. Herbalism is inherently gender-affirming. Here are some herbs that target optimum nourishment, overall endocrine health, and resourced well-being.

On an energetic level, there are herbs surrounding us that aid in identity-affirming no matter what step of the journey you are on. On a very physiological level, herbs can help tip the hormone scales to favor one over the other, balance above all, and support whatever goals you have.

Traditional Herbal Strategies to Optimize Your Fertility

Traditional Herbal Strategies to Optimize Your Fertility

Our approach to fertility enhancing herbs is to rely on tried and true herbal preparations that have been known as herbs to optimize the chances for conception long before they were trending as such. Bridging the worlds between science and tradition, the herbs we highlight here fall into the category of endocrine supportive (hormone balancing) uterine and ovarian tonics which support the pre-conception phase and may help to maintain a healthy pregnancy as well: vitex, ashwagandha, black cohosh, red clover, motherwort, raspberry leaf, and more.
