Sage Suppliments..

[masma]

Has anyone tried this? Daughter is having dreadful night sweats, we think due to anxiety, she's 40 so maybe pre menopausal? She's having to get up 2+ times a night to change night clothes and bedding.
Any help or advice would be appreciated.

Anxiety is a medical problem, so she should see the doctor to confirm the cause. She seems young for pre-menopausal, although will depend on family history, etc.

I started perimenopause around 40. If I was her I would be checking it out with the doc.
I didn't find that sage, agnus castus, soy, black cohosh, or any of the herbal remedies worked for me. What did work was dressing and sleeping in natural fibres (tencel sheets - fabulous), keeping the room cool, and drinking plenty of water. I don't generally have a lot of caffeine so didn't need to cut down on that.

She'll be making a doctors appointment asap but would prefer to go down the natural route if possible. Thank you both for your help xx

masma, she may well not wish to see gp, but she should really. are you well. any changes ?

masma i tried hrt and that didnt work either, it just turned me into the woman from hell, so i went the natural route too. for me the natural route was cool rooms, dressing in layers, wearing and sleeping in natural fibres and drinking plenty of water.
