I've been through it naturally, no hormones. I did have some abnormal bleeding, had a few tests and procedures. Ultimately ended up having a complete hysterectomy.
You might like to do some reading on supplementing with Rosehips Seed Oil for help in managing your symptoms.

I took Femhrt for a few years My periods stopped the first month never to return again. So I didn't have to go through wondering if I was going to have another one, so that was wonderful. No hot flashes either. I was on them probably 5-6 years. I didn't stop cold turkey. I gradually decreased my dosage over a few months and I've been great ever since.

I got married at 40 and had my only child as I turned 45. Within 6 months I was in full blown menipause. At first I took hormones but within a year there was a lot of publicity against taking them; I took myself off them and then let my gynecologist know. I never had really bad symptoms ( and what I had quickly went away).

About 5 years ago, my dr. asked me about if I was having symptoms. I wasn't and didn't notice anything new. Because I was of the age when most women start menopause, he asked how I felt about hot flashes. I said I wasn't interested and I've been on hormone replacement since then. I haven't looked back.
(Side note-I actually had a few hot flashes when I was pregnant, so I knew what they were like.)
Good luck with whatever you choose. It has to be right for you.

I went thru menopause years ago, I was in my late 40's. I had very few hot flashes, but did have what I called my summer of discontent...I was moody and crabby, but it did not last long. I could not take hormones (my mom had breast cancer) but really had few symptoms so I was quite lucky. I hope this is an easy process for you.

I entered menopause ~3 years ago. The two worst things that I experience are hot flashes, although they seem to have subsided over the last 6 months or so, and not being able to fall asleep at night, which I solved by taking Good Day Sleep supplement. They are chocolate! I fall asleep when my head hits the pillow & wake up refreshed & well rested! The night sweats haven't been an issue for me. I do get hot at night but that's really because my husband can't take the AC as cold as I prefer, so I bump it up so that he doesn't get too cold.

I started menopause when I was in my early forties. My friend told me about a tofu shake that she was drinking and it really helped me. Take a regular size container of tofu and quarter it. Drop a quarter of it into the blender with 8oz. of your favorite juice and blend. Take the other three quarters of the tofu and put it in a container and cover with water. Repeat the next day. I liked it with orange juice or cran apple or cran raspberry juice. The oj one reminded me of an Orange Julius. You only need to do one a day. If I remember correctly it took about four or five days til I noticed a difference. I ran it by my doctor and she said a lot of her patients did that. She also said it would only work for so long. It worked for me for a year. After that I went on HRT for a year. I highly recommend the tofu shake, it's a good place to start. Good Luck.

I had a very difficult time going through menopause with drenching night sweats, extreme irritability, hot flashes, etc. My doctor prescribed the lowest dose hormone replacement which I took for over a year. I knew when I began to feel normal again, so I was weaned off. Every woman is different, and needs to make the best decision for themselves with their doctor.
