Cindy,
The best thing you can do is try to eat healthy, continue to exercise even if it is just walking, and get plenty of rest. I took menopause support supplement made by Nature Made and it helped me. If these symptoms continue you can talk to your doctor about HRT, which will help with this transition period.

I can not take HRT and was having a terrible time with hot flashes, mood swings and insomnia. It was my primary and not the GYN that was the most help. I took Paxil for 3 months and it really helped settle everything down for me. I also found walking my dogs helped me to de-stress and relax.
