Valerian root may benefit women by potentially alleviating symptoms of menopause, such as hot flashes, and reducing the physical, emotional, and behavioral symptoms of PMS. It may also help with painful periods (dysmenorrhea) and improve sleep quality, particularly for those experiencing insomnia or sleep disturbances related to menopause.
Valerian root is most commonly used as a natural remedy for sleep problems, anxiety, and stress due to its sedative effects on the brain.
