I have been taking Amberen for 4 months. I had my last period two years ago (Jan. '08). I am 57 years old. I began with the regimine of 1 orange pill and 1 white pill for about 6 weeks, but increased to 2 a day for the last 2 months. I had been experiencing about 12 - 14 hot flashes a day and about 8 night sweats a night for the last 4 years and finally decided I wanted to do something about it. I did NOT want HRT so, after showing my MD the box with the ingredients, he said, "these are amino acids and you can certainly try them if you would like, they won't hurt you". Well, in the last 3 weeks, I have begun having good relief from the hot flashes and night sweats, my mood has been a bit elevated and I am sleeping so much better. My sister-in-law is a nurse and she was the one who recommended Amberen to me. I would recommend it if you doctor says it's okay.
