Dee Ito has the right idea. Wild Yam cream or gel (or as I call it "wildyamjam"), red clover, black cohosh. For you perimenopausal women out there, you can use these natural supplements with a great deal of success. I'm not growing hair in weird places. My moods are generally upbeat, my libido is fine, and I don't need synthetic estrogens or progesterones (which made me depressed) and I attribute it to the above alternative supplements.
I liked Ito's book. I found it well organized but also it has a verysupportive tone to it. I don't want "fake" hormones to getme through menopause. I ordered some cream that contained wild yamand other phytoestregers from my favorite site [recommended in Ito'sbooks],... I think we can follow Ito's suggestions and not be barragedwith the effects of "the change."
