What Is Menopause?

Menopause is a natural biological transition that marks the end of a woman’s reproductive years. It occurs when the ovaries stop releasing eggs and the production of key hormones — estrogen and progesterone — significantly declines. As a result, menstrual cycles stop, and fertility gradually decreases.

The journey into menopause begins with a stage called perimenopause, which can start as early as a woman’s late 30s or early 40s. This transitional phase can last several years and is often marked by fluctuating hormone levels, leading to a variety of physical and emotional symptoms such as hot flushes, mood swings, sleep disturbances, and changes in skin health.

Understanding this natural shift is key to finding the right menopause support. At Modani Naturals, we’re here to help women embrace this phase with natural, hormone-free wellbeing and skincare solutions formulated to nurture the skin, body, and mind.

Ingredients

What’s in the Wild Yam Cream?

We use a blend of premium Ayurvedic herbs (up to 35%) with Wild Yam Root as the primary active ingredient.

Wild yam root (Dioscorea villosa) is rich in diosgenin, a phytoestrogen and natural precursor to DHEA, a hormone that regulates testosterone and estrogen. Traditional healers have used wild yam for centuries to help balance women’s hormones, potentially impacting overall well-being.

Other key ingredients included that work in synergy with Wild Yam Root:

  • Chaste tree (Vitex agnus-castus): Supports menstrual health and balances estrogen and progesterone.
  • Red clover (Trifolium pratense): Rich in isoflavones, helps regulate menopausal symptoms.
  • Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera): Calms the mind, reduces stress, enhances focus, and promotes heart health.
  • Shatavari (Asparagus racemosus): Balances hormones, regulates menopausal symptoms, and enhances female health.
  • Black Cohosh (Cimicifuga racemosa): Manages menopause symptoms and improves hormonal balance.
  • Chamomile: Calms and aids sleep.

These potent herb infusions are then blended into a natural base as per below.

Base ingredients:

  • Plant oils: Infused in olive, grapeseed, apricot, and jojoba oils for maximum therapeutic properties.
  • Shea, Cocoa, and Mango Butters: Create a balanced, non-greasy base.
  • Coconut oil: Moisturizes and locks in moisture.
  • Castor oil: Moisturising and enhances the absorption of the herbs.  It also has antibacterial properties and high in antioxidants.
  • Beeswax: Attracts moisture and provides a stable base.
  • Arrowroot powder: Reduces greasiness for a smooth texture.
  • Essential Oils: Lavender, Rose Geranium, and Cedarwood for relaxation and stress reduction.
  • Vitamin E: Antioxidant that stabilizes the product and moisturizes the skin.

This cream is waterless, so no preservatives are used in the formulation. Shelf life is 6-9 months or possibly longer if correctly stored. One tin should last approximately 3 months with regular daily use. 

It's best stored in a cool dry area out of direct sunlight under 28 degrees.  

How does it work?

Wild Yam Cream from Modani Naturals is designed to be applied to areas of thinner skin, such as the neck, inner upper arms, and wrists, allowing for optimal absorption. Its key ingredient, Wild Yam Root, contains a natural compound called diosgenin.

Diosgenin is a type of phytoestrogen, a plant compound that resembles estrogen, the hormone involved in many functions in the body. When absorbed through the skin, diosgenin may interact with estrogen receptors, including those in the hypothalamus, the part of the brain that helps regulate hormones.

This interaction may support the body’s natural hormone regulation, helping to reduce symptoms sometimes associated with hormonal changes, such as hot flushes or mood swings related to menopause or premenstrual syndrome (PMS).

In simple terms, Wild Yam Cream offers a gentle, plant-based approach to supporting hormonal balance and to manage some of the discomforts that can accompany changes in hormone levels.

If you have any health concerns, please check our FAQ or consult your healthcare provider before use.

Please Note

Even though this menopause cream is gentle, all-natural, and preservative-free, some people may still be sensitive to the herbs, essential oils, or other ingredients. We recommend doing a patch test first and discontinuing use if any irritation occurs.

A Quick Note

Wild Yam Cream is designed for gentle, natural support during menopause, PMS, or other hormonal changes. If you’re pregnant, breastfeeding, taking medication, or have hormone-related health conditions, it’s a good idea to check with your healthcare provider first.

How to use

For menopause support

You can begin using Wild Yam Cream at any point in your routine. For best results, it’s important to apply the cream consistently 2-3 times per day, even after you start feeling better. Regular use is key to its effectiveness.

Apply the cream three times daily: in the morning, afternoon, and early evening. Each application should be approximately up to 1/2 teaspoon in total. You can split this amount into smaller portions for targeted areas.

For targeted application, use about 1/4 teaspoon on each inner arm, wrists, or on each side of the crease of your neck. 1/4 teaspoon is roughly the size of the back of your pinky fingernail. Massage the cream gently into the skin and enjoy the soothing sensation and calming natural fragrance. Allow it to absorb briefly before dressing.

If you need a top-up during the day, simply dab a small amount onto your wrists. For on-the-go convenience, check out our new 40g size, perfect for easy top-ups throughout the day.

For PERI/PMS

If you are new to using this Wild Yam Cream, to simplify the process, start the cream when your period stops. Then apply (see above) twice daily, mornings and early evening, for PERI/PMS support and break again during your period. Start the process again when your period stops.

Dab a small amount onto your wrists in the afternoon if needed to calm an oncoming hot flush.

Post menopause

Continue using the cream twice daily, morning and afternoon, with an optional top-up on your wrists in the early evening if desired.

Ongoing, consistent use after menopause helps maintain hormonal balance, calm, and overall well-being.

What to Expect:

With regular use, many women notice a gentle sense of balance returning as their body adjusts. You may experience a gradual easing of hot flushes, night sweats, mood fluctuations, or other common symptoms of hormonal change. Some women also notice improved energy, mental clarity, and overall well-being.

Everyone’s body is different, so changes may be subtle at first, consistency is key, and the benefits often build over time.
