Quick Facts

Who Wild Yam Is For

• Adult women looking for a traditional herbal option for menstrual pain
• Adults with cramping, colicky abdominal discomfort
• People who prefer a single-herb tincture over a multi-herb blend
• Those who want certified organic root in an organic alcohol base
• Anyone who likes to take their herbs with food rather than on an empty stomach

Who this product is NOT for:

• Anyone who is pregnant or breastfeeding
• Babies and children — the label dose is for adults only
• People looking for a hormone replacement — this tincture is labelled for menstrual pain and colic, not for menopause
• Anyone avoiding alcohol — it's extracted in organic alcohol

Vitamart's Take

Wild yam often gets marketed as a natural hormone, and older copy on our own page said the same. The current St. Francis label is more grounded: it's a traditional Western herbal remedy for menstrual pain that also eases colic. That makes it a sensible single herb for crampy, colicky discomfort, taken with food three times a day. If you're after a broader menstrual formula, St. Francis Menstrual Tonic is a blend; for menopause, Menopause Support is the better match.

How Wild Yam Compares

Wild Yam vs. Crampbark

Both are traditional herbs for cramping. St. Francis Crampbark is labelled as an antispasmodic for muscle spasms and menstrual cramps; Wild Yam is labelled for menstrual pain and colic.

Single herb vs. Menstrual Tonic

St. Francis Menstrual Tonic (formerly Dong Quai Combo) is a multi-herb uterine tonic for menstrual pain. Wild Yam gives you one herb on its own.

Wild Yam vs. Menopause Support

St. Francis Menopause Support combines dong quai, black cohosh and vitex for menopausal symptoms. Wild Yam's label covers menstrual pain and colic, not menopause.
