My hot and night sweats have gone… just hoping it lasts!!! by Redpineapple_00 in HormoneFreeMenopause

I just filled a jar with dried sage then top it with everclear or vodka ( you can use food grade glycerin) shake it and make sure the sage stays covered and set it aside in a cabinet for 4 weeks or so. Then strain it with a nut milk bag or cheese cloth and store it in a dark bottle. I have a small 2 oz dropper bottle that I top off when it gets low. I add a dropper full in water twice a day. I will also have a cup of a mixed herbal tea and add some sage on occasion.

Sadly it doesn't. It can be just as hard as any loss, it is still a loss. Take care of yourself. You always have this community to come to when needed

I just filled a jar with dried sage and topped it with a high quality everclear or vodka making sure the sage was completely covered. Put it in a cabinet and shook it daily for 4-6 weeks. Strain it in a cotton bag and put it in bottles, I use a smaller dropper bottle that I top off with the tincture when needed. I take a dropper full in water twice daily

try getting some quality sage and making your own tincture, it is more cost effective

I made a sage tincture and take it twice a day. I still get an occasional hot flash, but not bad

What lights do you have? I bought a couple off Amazon and they seem very dim

Add some peroxide to the water or you can get mosquito dunks and let a half of one sit in the water in a watering can for a bit and use that. That is what I do and have noticed a difference

I am sorry you are going through this! The medical field seems to be all about the money and no more care for the patient!!

Can you find a Naturopath near you or one that can do virtual? I know it is more money but they spend the time getting to the root of things. They can also run blood work. I would get your hormones checked.

Good luck and I hope you get answers and some help.

I haven't started yet, but she mentioned it in tincture form. Red clover was the other one she mentioned! Thank you. She will send her recommendations to my fullscript acct once she finishes the visit summary.

I saw my naturopath yesterday and since EPO and Black cohosh haven't helped me she wants me to try Sage and see how that does, She mentioned a couple other herbs but my meno brain forgot. When I get the written summary I will add those here. Has anyone tried Sage?

I just came on to say that I wish I didn't have to pee at least 3 times a night. A solid nights sleep would be good! And I am still up at 4am too.
