How to Support Women's Hormone Health using Essential Oils
So let's talk hormones for a minute.
I'm going to ask you a few questions:
Are you gaining weight & don't know why?
Is your energy drained?
Do you have trouble falling asleep & then have to drag yourself out of bed in the morning?
Are you craving ice cream or potato chips in the middle of the day &/or late at night?
Do you find your keys in the freezer & your glasses on top of the toilet?
Have you sent the same text to your friend for the third time after forgetting about the previous two?
Are you so moody that your husband approaches with caution when he sees your face?
Do you often feel like you're just losing your mind?
If you answered ‘yes’ to any of the above questions, the answer could lie in your hormone levels.
But before resorting to taking synthetic hormones, did you know that high quality essential oils, paired with lifestyle changes, can be a powerful & natural way to help balance you out?
Here's the truth:
Essential oils are natural aromatic compounds found in the roots, seeds, stems, bark, leaves, & flowers of different plants. They are super-charged … 50-70x more potent than their herbal counterparts. They are the best plant-based remedy that exists & have been around for thousands of years.
And these natural options help you avoid the many side effects associated with synthetic hormones.

Top 7 Oils for Hormone Support
Clary Sage
Apply 1 drop over the abdomen to support abdominal or menstrual cramping.
Apply 1 drop on the back of the neck or bottoms of the feet to support hot flashes.
Apply 1 drop on the back of the neck or bottoms of the feet to support PMS. Alternatively, use 3 drops in a diffuser.
Ylang Ylang
Put 3 drops in the diffuser for extra support when your emotions are running high.
Apply 1 drop to pulse points on your body (neck, wrists, ankles) to help support relaxation, stress, or tension.
Personally, I love adding a drop of this & a drop of Grapefruit to a diffuser bracelet or necklace so I can smell it all day long.
Roman Chamomile
Can't keep the tears from flowing?
Put 1 drop in the palm of your hand, rub palms together, cup palms over nose & mouth, & inhale deeply for 30 seconds. Apply excess over back of neck.
You could also put in the diffuser.
Hormone fluctuations keeping you from getting good sleep? Put 3 drops of this in the diffuser to help you drift off to dreamland. 💤
Cypress
Hemorrhoids?
Apply 1-2 drops with a little fractionated coconut oil to the area of concern. This stuff is magic!
If you want a blend that works like gangbusters try putting the following into a 10mL roller bottle:
5 drops Cypress
5 drops Lavender
5 drops Frankincense
5 drops Helichrysum
3 drops Geranium
3 drops Sandalwood
Top the rest of the bottle off with fractionated coconut oil.
Varicose veins?
Apply 1-2 drops Cypress, with a little fractionated coconut oil directly over those problem areas.
Clary Calm (Women's Monthly Blend)
You'll want to make this part of your daily regimen.
It comes in a rollerbottle. Give a couple swipes over the bottom of your feet each morning to help support evening out your hormone levels, which will in turn support all kinds of hormone related issues.
Swipe over the belly area & lower back to help support menstrual cramping. For the best support do the bottoms of the feet, every day, all month long. It works much better when it's constantly in your bloodstream...versus waiting until your period starts.
Apply over back of neck & bottoms of feet to support hot flashes.
Make sure every woman (pre-teen & above) has a bottle of this for extra support on those emotional days when PMS is getting the best of them. And don't think 1 bottle per house is enough. Believe me...I speak from experience...you don't want to have to chase your bottle down when your daughter has stolen it for herself. 😉 😂
Whisper (Women's blend)
This heavy hitter contains Patchouli, Bergamot, Sandalwood, Rose, Vanilla bean absolute, Jasmine, Cinnamon, Vetiver, Labdanum, Cocoa bean, & Ylang Ylang oils...so yummy!
You can wear this as a perfume & combine with your favorite citrus oil.
For balancing hormone levels, apply a couple drops to pulse points & back of neck.
This is awesome for hot flashes too.
Apply 1-2 drops to pulse points & abdomen to increase libido / sex drive.
Inhale from cupped hands to help calm anger.
Adaptiv (Calming blend)
This blend contains Wild Orange, Lavender, Copaiba, Spearmint, Magnolia, Rosemary, Neroli, & Sweetgum oils.
For menstruation & menopause-related moodiness & depression, apply 1-2 drops over abdomen, ovaries, & bottoms of feet.
Wear as a perfume with a drop of your favorite citrus to level out your mood & promote relaxation & euphoria.
