I just read the manufacturer's website, regarding your question: "Amberen can restore menstrual cycles, and return endometrium to normal thickness", and what does this do for a 60 year old women who is in menopause?
The statement you heard on the radio refers specifically to women who have entered into menopause prematurely, and the manufacturer's are claiming, "In clinical trials, premature menopause was largely reversed. Benefits included restored regularity of menstrual cycles and the return of normal thickness of the endometrium." Source: Amberen Online FAQ.
Since you have not had a period for 5-6 years, and have not entered into menopause prematurely, the manufacturer's site claims that Amberen is appropriate for menopausal women to relieve symptoms.
It is important to talk with your doctor about the symptoms you are experiencing, and to let him/her know you are interested in trying Amberen (or other treatment) for relieving your symptoms. Your doctor will need to know what other prescription and non-prescription (OTC, supplements, etc) that you are taking, so as to avoid any drug interactions. Your doctor can also help you gauge the effectiveness of treatment, and offer other remedies as needed.
Let us know what you decide to do, as we would love to hear your progress!
