Menopause Treatment: Stop Hot Flashes
October 6, 2009 by drhusbands · 1 Comment
Though I’ve been helping women with PMS and menopausal health issues that are associated with hormonal imbalances for many years, I’ve seen some particularly amazing results lately. Within the last couple of months, I made a slight modification to the menopause treatment I’ve been using for years. The results were amazing! The length of time it takes for the menopause treatment to work decreased from months to a few days. My recent women patients were able to stop hot flashes in a matter of days!
One recent case was of woman who was exceptionally healthy. She consulted me to help her with one thing: stop hot flashes. She is a private exercise trainer and lives a very healthy lifestyle, including maintaining an excellent diet. Her diagnostic tests for salivary and blood hormonal levels showed some imbalances in her estradiol and progesterone levels. She also had slight DHEA imbalances. I put her on the new nutritional program for hormonal balancing. Remarkably, within 2 days of starting the program her hot flashes stopped!
I thought this was an exceptional case because the woman was really healthy. In my many years of healthcare practice, a vast majority of people I’ve treated do not follow a healthy lifestyle. Some even believe they do, but when I review their lifestyle, diet and nutrition, I find that the healthy ones are the exception, not the norm.
Thus, I thought the remarkable case of menopause treatment working in a matter of days would not occur for most of my patients. I was pleasantly surprised with my next case of menopause treatment. Like the very healthy woman, the next woman had significant hot flashes, too. I put her on the same nutritional program with some slight tweaking. In this case, the woman did not maintain a healthy lifestyle. She was also a smoker. I expected that it would take much longer to stop hot flashes. To my surprise, she experienced her her menopause treatment working within a few days. Her hot flashes decreased within a few days, not weeks or months. She is her own words it was “much, much better!”
Having seen that the program works even when the woman had previously followed a healthy diet and lifestyle or not, my expectations have been raised.
I’m looking forward to publishing an article on this nutrition protocol. Stay tuned!

Menopause is experienced by many women as a time of radical changes in her body. Though not all women experience it in the same way there are a few things that are common in most women like, menopause and the consequential loss of hormones that come with it when hot flashes become more common. Black Cohosh is reportedly mild and effective for treating symptoms resulting from the loss of estrogen and reportedly stops cramping and pain. Saint John’s Wort has been indicated to treat the depression and moodiness associated with menopause.
