17 Mar 2016 Since taking black cohosh about 3 weeks ago I am having terrible abdominal pain. Most times I experience clear fluid from my vagina along with the pain.

04 Mar 2016 Black Cohash was suggested to me by a nurse for hot flashes from menopause. I bought some and the instructions were to take it twice a day. On the second day I used it, I started having really crazy thoughts, like wanting to hurt my pets and eviscerate myself. I sat in a dark room until that passed, after a few hours, and have never used this again. It really disturbed me that there was no place to report this side effect.

27 Jun 2011 Because of my concerns with the liver pain, I googled the side effects and dangers of the black cohosh. It can up just as I thought. I am feeling better with no more hot flashes, but I will stop taking this supplement after reading the dangers. I wanted to share my experience.
