I'm another one who's really sorry to hear that HB has been suspended. If she's reading this I'd like her to know that I think she's always been extremely supportive and the idea for an alternative therapies section was excellent. My knowledge of menopause stuff is extremely limited, and I've learnt a lot by reading here, so can't really participate in the debates but do appreciate others sharing their experiences.
I've just looked at a couple of other threads and see that the subject of Alternative Therapies has caused disagreements in the past so can see why there was a reluctance for the inclusion, however menopause problems / solutions aren't 'one size fits all' and what works for one person doesn't always work for another, but if it helps just one person then we need to consider it because it may just help us. Surely it's up to the individual to decide if they want to try something and, whilst they should try to learn as much as possible from others, we should respect their choices. The internet is full of information which proves or disproves any theory and it really depends on what you want to find and how you interpret it.
