For practitioner dispensing and professionally guided use.
Always read the label and follow the directions for use.
Professional supervision is recommended during pregnancy and breastfeeding.
Do not self-prescribe medicinal amounts of Wild Yam during pregnancy or while breastfeeding.
Reliable safety information is insufficient to support routine unsupervised use during either period.
Use cautiously if you have gallstones or a history of gallbladder attacks.
Supporting gallbladder function may be unsuitable where a gallstone is impacted or a bile duct is obstructed.
Consult a doctor before use if you have gallstones, bile-duct obstruction, gallbladder inflammation, cholangitis or another diagnosed biliary condition.
Seek prompt medical assessment for severe pain beneath the right ribs, fever, repeated vomiting, jaundice, dark urine or pale stools.
Do not use Wild Yam as emergency treatment for suspected gallstone pain.
Wild Yam should not be described as increasing progesterone, correcting low progesterone or acting as natural hormone replacement.
Do not replace prescribed progesterone, oestrogen, menopausal hormone therapy, hormonal contraception or fertility treatment with Wild Yam.
Do not change or discontinue prescribed hormonal medication without advice from the healthcare professional managing your treatment.
Consult your healthcare practitioner before use if you have a hormone-sensitive condition or are being investigated for one.
This includes a history of hormone-sensitive breast, ovarian or uterine cancer, endometriosis, fibroids, unexplained vaginal bleeding or abnormal endometrial changes.
This caution does not mean that Wild Yam has been proven to act like oestrogen or progesterone. It reflects the uncertainty surrounding concentrated products used in hormone-sensitive situations.
Wild Yam may be traditionally positioned for menstrual discomfort, but it should not delay investigation of severe or recurring pelvic pain.
Seek medical assessment for very heavy bleeding, bleeding between periods, pain during intercourse, faintness, fever or sudden one-sided pelvic pain.
Bleeding after menopause is not a normal menopause symptom and requires medical assessment.
Do not use Wild Yam as a substitute for professional menopause care.
Hot flushes, night sweats, sleep disruption, mood changes, vaginal dryness and joint or muscle discomfort may require lifestyle support, medical review or evidence-based treatment.
Research involving Wild Yam cream has not demonstrated that the body converts Wild Yam into progesterone or established it as an effective replacement for menopausal hormone therapy.
Do not apply this oral 60% ethanol preparation directly to the skin or use it as though it were a Wild Yam cream.
Do not use Wild Yam as a substitute for investigation of persistent abdominal or digestive symptoms.
Seek medical advice for severe abdominal pain, repeated vomiting, difficulty swallowing, black stools, blood in the stool, persistent bowel changes or unexplained weight loss.
Muscular cramps may be associated with physical exertion, dehydration, electrolyte imbalance, medication effects, circulation problems or another underlying cause.
Persistent, severe or unexplained muscle cramping requires appropriate assessment.
Reliable medicine-interaction information remains limited.
Consult your doctor or pharmacist before use if you take regular prescription medicines, particularly hormonal medicines, fertility treatments or medicines used for a hormone-sensitive condition.
