Not a fun time, Deb. Some people can go through the change without many symptoms but most of us women have them. Until you are in it, one doesn’t realize what it’s like.

I’m sure the hot flashes went on for 10 years with me. At the time there was the cancer scare if taking estrogen, etc.

I didn’t take anything to ease the discomfort but glad you found a natural remedy to help.

No wonder you are tired with the blood flow. Some of this is part of the menopause but you may need to see the doctor to check this out.

Some suggestions:

Drink half a glass of prune juice in the morning to help with constipation.

I found eating chocolate and drinking coffee really brought on the hot flashes.
