Estrogen

By Archived User | Updated: Dec 31, 2021 | Published: Dec 31, 2021

I was diagnosed with estrogen positive breast cancer 10 years ago and have had neck pain for many years. An MRI revealed degenerative changes. Can you recommend an herbal formula that will NOT raise my estrogen but help with my neck pain?

Someone suggested Pureraria 10. Have you heard of that and does it raise estrogen?

Chinese herbal medicine needs to be chosen based on your overall diagnosis from a TCM standpoint. You should consult directly with a practitioner. That said acupuncture with tuina (Chinese Medical Massage) will be far superior in my opinion to herbal medicine for neck pain.
