While reading "The People's Pharmacy" column in my local paper, I saw an article on remedies for hot flashes, etc. I'd been suffering for 3 months - hot flashes, night sweats - it was awful. It suggested a product called "Estrovera" which - according to the article - has been prescribed in Germany to women for 20 years, and has been thoroughly clinically tested. The active ingredient is an extract of Siberian Rhubarb (I think?) which is rich in plant estrogens. NO side effects. It's distributed by a company called Metagenics here in the US (google it for their website). I first bought it on Amazon, then found it at my local compounding pharmacy. It took for about 3 weeks before I started to see a decrease in my symptoms and after a month then was symptom free! It was like being given a new lease on life. This was in December. The past month, however, I've had a return of symptoms - I was lazy taking the supplement and I've had a hard time getting back to 'symptom free'. I'm 50 years old, FYI. I do exercise a lot which helps with the mental clarity... good luck - hope this helps!
