Natural remedies to relieve symptoms associated with menopause are a good alternative.
I found this interesting, "TUESDAY, June 2, 2015 (HealthDay News) -- Vitamin D and calcium supplements don't help ease the symptoms of menopause, a new study says.
The research is part of the Women's Health Initiative, a long-term clinical trial of menopausal women, and included more than 34,000 U.S. women between the ages of 50 and 79.
Half of the women took daily vitamin D and calcium supplements while the others took placebo pills. The average number of menopausal symptoms in both groups was the same -- slightly more than six.
"If we want to understand vitamin D's effects on the most severe symptoms of menopause, we need to do a study in younger women," LeBlanc concluded."
Calcium and vitamin D do help with bone loss, as does daily exercise and a healthy diet.
Also, found an explanation for the correlation between consuming excess sugar and hot flahses.
"An excess amount of sugar causes an artificial high source of sugar, which triggers the body to go into a stress response with the assumption that the body is under stress. The stress response originates in the hypothalamus and causes an increase in blood pressure and heart rate, and an increase in blood circulation; all signs of a hot flash or night sweat." 34 Menopause Symptoms
