[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Does all that stuff actually make you feel better?[/quote] I take it to address a problem, and yes, it alleviates the discomfort. My sleep was shit, with night sweats and frequent waking and frequent need to pee. My joints ached. I had brain fog. The hormones reduced those symptoms by 80%. Did my great grandmother wake up drenched twice a night, and sit staring for an hour at a pile of green beans needing to be canned? I assume she did...? [/quote] She probably had a lot of that, but attitudes around menopause apparently significantly change how your subjective experience of the symptoms. If she didn't see it as a medical problem (which is less likely in a time when there's not any way of treating it), she probably experienced the symptoms as less significant than you did.[/quote] Theres's plant medicinal that help with symptoms and women knew about them or shared them.
