The anxiety and heart racing just might be stress induced – but see a doctor to make sure. That is also the age that women need to worry about cardiovascular health as well.

This complex uses compounds found in plants call phytoestrogens to ease mood swings, sleeplessness, and hot flashes associated with menopause.

Contains a standardized extract of Black Cohosh as well as Soy Isoflavones and Flaxseed. Also contains a proprietary phytoestrogen blend of dong quai, red clover, and licorice. No artificial colors, flavors, or synthetic preservatives.

NOTES:
Symptom 1 (hot flashes)
Hot flashes are due to the hypothalamic response to declining ovarian estrogen production. The declining estrogen state induces hypophysiotropic neurons in the arcuate nucleas of the hypothalamus to release gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) in a pulsatile fashion, which in turn stimulates release of luteinizing hormone (LH). Extremely high pulses of LH occur during the period of declining estrogen production. The LH has vasodilatory effects, which leads to flushing.

Symptom 7 (loss of libido)
For some women the loss is so great that they actually find sex repulsive, in much the same way as they felt before puberty. What hormones give, loss of hormones can take away.

Symptom 8 (dry vagina)
results in painful intercourse

Symptom 11 (doom thoughts)
includes thoughts of death, picturing one’s own death

Symptom 14 (incontinence)
reflects a general loss of smooth muscle tone

Symptom 15 (itchy, crawly skin)
feeling of ants crawling under the skin, not just dry itchy skin

Symptom 16 (aching sore joints)
may include such problems as carpal tunnel syndrome

Symptom 22 (depression)
different from other depression, the inability to cope is overwhelming. There is a feeling of loss of self. Hormone therapy ameliorates the depression dramatically.

Symptom 25 (weight gain)
often around the waist and thighs, resulting in the disappearing waistline

Symptom 29 (shock sensation)
"the feeling of a rubber band snapping in the layer of tissue between skin and muscle. It is a precursor to a hot flash"

Symptom 30 (tingling in extremities)
can also be a symptom of B-12 deficiency, diabetes, alterations in the flexibility of blood vessels, or a depletion of potassium or calcium

Some of the 34 signs may also be symptoms of one of the following:
* hypothyroidism
* diabetes
* depression with another etiology
* Multiple Sclerosis
* other medical conditions
If you have reason to believe you may have one of these conditions, please see your doctor for treatment.

I had to have a totaly hysterectomy before I was 40 and because it was cancer I could not take any hormone replacement. I went cold turkey into the hot flashes and everything else associated with menopause. It was horrible and I thought I was loosing my mind.

This went on for 2 years and I thought it would let up, but it didn’t. It continued to get worse. I saw a commercial on tv for this Estroven and decided it was worth a try. I called my doctor first and he said it would be ok to try, but he doubted it would work.

I bought it and after just 2 days I noticed a slight difference. After a full week, no more hot flashes! I did get a couple over the years, but they have been no where near what I was having in the beginning. All my other symptoms have gotten better too.

A couple of years ago I figured that it’s been so long since I’ve had the hyst that I could probably quit taking this Estroven…boy was I wrong! All the symptoms started coming back, so I started it right up again.

Since I’ve been taking it, I’ve talked with my doctor and the pharmacist about it and their thoughts have changed on it too. They both reccommend it now because so many women have taken it and reported back to them with good results. Some women even call them their "happy pills" because you feel so much better without those nasty hot flashes and you’re able to sleep a little better too…not to mention, you’re less crabby!

Good luck and if you give it a try, I hope you have good results with it too (by the way, I’ve also tried the generic of it and it doesn’t work as well…FYI).

Fibroids can cause unexplained bleeding, and extra heavy bleeding. If your periods are like normal, then it’s probably just normal monthly bleeding, not fibroids.
