I used natural progesterone in the beginning of my pre-menopause. It eliminated my migraines, stabilized my moods and helped me sleep better. It is known for helping with hot flashes, but I didn’t have hot flashes until later, and it hasn’t helped me with those.
I’ve also used several herbs to help with hot flashes, sleep and stress. Motherwort is good for all three. I’ve also taken vervain, scullcap and Siberian ginseng, among others.
The diet that is working best for me is from “The Carbohydrate Addict’s Life Span Program”, by Drs Richard and Rachael Heller. It’s the only program I have found that I can lose weight with, mostly because it minimizes cravings and hunger. It also works better with my digestion, which has gone crazy since entering pre-menopause.
I am eating more vegetables and less grains and sweets, because I feel better eating this way. For more info on diet (and herbs and progesterone cream), you can visit
