Lydia Estes Pinkham was born Feb. 9, 1819 in Lynn, Massachusetts and died May 17, 1883. She concocted very successful herbal alcoholic medications for women with menstrual and menopausal pains, but some of her herbal concoctions for neighbors proved in some cases to be deadly. As a young woman she supported the feminist and moral positions. In 1976 Ms. Pinkham marked Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and was the best known patented medicines of the 19th century.
