Hot Flash Help

SurferWife — Sun, 13 Sep 2020 21:28:44 GMT

Hi everyone. I am about to run out of my current hot flash supplement & although it helps to decrease the intensity of my hot flashes, I wonder if there is another brand that might be more effective? I currently use Spring Valley Black Cohosh & I like it because the pills are small. Any other brands of you have tried that were effective? I welcome your input.

There's supplements for everything that ails us - but each person has a slightly different experience with them.

Personally, I have had great success using 2 of Andrew Lessman's:

Positive Passage

and

Women's Wellness

I've taken them NOT together - took Positive Passage, when I ran out I tried the Women's Wellness.

Both aided my night sweats, my mood and helped me sleep too.

Again - there's a ton available in retail and on line, give something a shot and GOOD LUCK!

@MoonieBaby

Thanks for the quick feedback. I've never tried Andrew Lessman. Are the pills large? I'm horrible at taking pills & prefer smaller ones, if possible.

I can’t help you with this but, I have friends who have gone through the misery of “hot flashes” .... I don’t know why I’ve been so lucky but I have never gotten a “hot flash” & I’m well beyond the age when they should have started.... I hope you find something that works for you ... Good Luck 😃

Nope, not at all, and if you have issues, try taking them with something more than water. Milk is easy, (any variety of milk - be it cow or plant based).

I take about 25+ supplements from Lessman and take them daily with his whey protein, it's thicker than water and easier to take that way.

Try something you concoct that's thicker than water and it just might be the answer to pill swallowing

@SurferWife I used to have horrible nightsweats. I took 40 mg of standardized Black Cohosh from GNC.My nightsweats disappeared in 2 days!!
I have recommended it to friends & they too have had great success.Not all Black Cohosh is the same.

Good luck!!

I just read great reviews on that! Many stated they saw results in a matter of days. Thanks for suggesting it; it's a reasonable price, too. I've added it to my cart on Amazon.

I know how hard it is to find the right supplements for your particular need, among the zillions offered. If it were me, and I'd found something that I know works, I think I'd stop looking and stick with it! Cheers, it won't last forever!

@SurferWife I took Nature's Way Change O Life. That was years ago, but I remember that it worked for me. It is a seven herb blend.

Best of luck!

@SurferWife When I was going through the hot flash thing, my doctor told me to eat one yam (not sweet potato) a day and as long as I did I was fine. No supplement worked as good as that. I used to get horrible night sweats and hot flashes so intense that I didn't want to go anywhere.

Now THAT is something I can do! Thanks for the tip.

When my were really bad at night and seemed to be mainly on my chest, I just bought several spare pillows and a big stack of cotton tees to fling around all night. Very satisfying.

Andrew Lessman's Ultimate Women's Wellness

Re: Hot Flash Help

VaBelle35 — Mon, 14 Sep 2020 16:59:23 GMT

I take both Andrew Lessman's Positive Passage and Ultimate Women's Wellness.

I take them both at the same time.

I take 2 UWW and one Positive Passage in the morning

and 2 PP at lunch.

The directions say to take one PP and add every 30 days if you aren't feeling relief, max is 3. For me, I need all 3.

Also, for me, I need both. Every January I go off them when I take my 2 week vacation to see if I still need them. Will try again this January.

@SurferWife, Relizen by Bonafide was/is the perfect solution for me—recommended by my integrative MD last year.

@MoonieBaby

Been waiting for someone to post they have taken both these products.

Since you did not use them together which one worked for you better?

I have been taking the Ultimate Women's Wellness for years but never tried the Positive Passage.

I used Emerita bioidentical prgesterone cream before I started using UWW.

@VaBelle35

Wondering if I should try Positive Passage with UWW or try it alone. Have been taking UWW for years but my hormones are still out of whack or least the doctor thinks that's the problem. He did mentioned Black Cohosh plus a few other ingredients in Andrew's product.

@Nightowlz I tried UWW alone and it did nothing for hot flashes for me. The PP at 3 pills a day helped rid my life of hot flashes.

UWW helps with mood for me.

Thanks for the reply. Not really having hot flashes now so I will stick with the UWW.
