If you are peri meno then it is easy to think it works for a time as your hormones will be fluctuating so meno symptoms come and go. The placebo effect can be strong. Dg x

I like you eat healthy, I exercise every single day, work full time & non stop on my feet & generally look after myself does it make any difference - does it heck.

I have tried absolutely everything to try and help my hot flushes nothing works hence why the queries about the magnet.

Sometimes it is just all too much isn't? & I cry too because some days I just can't see the wood for the trees, I'm having one of those days today mind you it doesn't help that the school I work in has a sickness bug & I've got it!!

:bighug: Zodiac xx

Post by: Beaker on April 17, 2016, 02:19:02 PM: I tried the Ladycare magnet for a good 3 months when I first started getting symptoms in the perimenopause. I'm afraid I found it to be no use whatsoever.

I'm guessing that Zodiac was advised not to take anything herbal for menopause because a lot of herbs are currently unregulated and there just aren't enough trials and evidence proving that they are effective.

I ended up going on HRT for my symptoms.
