Posts such as this one from a new member, have a nasty habit of being followed by a post from another new member, providing a link to a 'wonder supplement'. (i.e. they're poorly disguised spam). If such a secondary post appears I'll simply delete the thread.
However, assuming the post to be genuine . . .
The foods mentioned by Chanel5 are high in phytoestrogens, which some people believe may help the body to produce oestrogen but there has only been limited research into the subject.

"There are many nutritional supplements and herbal preparations such as phytoestrogens and black cohosh, but limited research has been done to show their effect and safety. However there is some research to suggest that phytoestrogens (very weak plant oestrogens found in soy, beans, lentils, red clover, seeds and most fruit and vegetables) can help reduce flushes and sweats in some women.
It may take up to three months to improve symptoms and phytoestrogens do not work for all women. Black cohosh, a herbal remedy may improve flushes and sweats. Always tell your doctor what you are planning to take, particularly if you have other ongoing health problems or medications.
If you buy a food supplement or alternative remedy, always buy a well-known brand that has a quality guarantee. Any herbal preparation should have the ‘THR’ certification mark to show they meet required standards effectiveness, safety and quality"
