Chickweed Oil for Vaginal Dryness

Hi Susun,

In one of your news letters, you mentioned using Chickweed oil for vaginal dryness.  You said to make it with fresh Chickweed.  If I able not able to obtain it fresh, can I make it with dried Chickweed? If not, can you recommend a good source of prepared Chickweed oil?

Thank you...

Hello,

You would definitely want to make the chickweed oil with fresh, juicy chickweed. Dried just would not be helpful in this instance. If you cannot get fresh, two online sources we recommend for products are Mountain Rose Herbs or Red Moon Herbs.

It may be difficult to find just the infused oil, probably will be easier for you to find a salve prepared with chickweed oil. That I find readily in local health food stores.

In case you didn't see this article of Susun's, I am including a link - more ideas for working with the vaginal dryness. She also recommends drinking infusions of oatstraw and comfrey to help ease your symptoms.
