Herbs Menopause Relief

Below are the most commonly used herbs for menopause relief. Many of these herbs are available in combination to treat menopause, but you can find them separately.

Don't forget: lifestyle can also improve symptoms of menopause. Regular exercise really reduces hot flashes and restores sleep. By regular I mean sweating 3 times a week! Deep breathing exercises also help with hot flashes and are recommended by Dr. Andrew Weil.
