The Menopause-Symptoms We Dread and EndureDid you know that a form of rhubarb-extract has actually been relieving menopause-symptoms for women is some parts of the world? Apparently it has been in the form of a special extract from the rhubarb root called ERr-731. Studies have been going on for some time in Germany, where incidentally, the root is actually listed and approved there as a remedy for constipation. I heard about the possible significance of rhubarb for hot-flashes a few years ago. A friend told me about it actually. She believes heavily in herbal remedies, and consults someone who deals specifically in this area for any ailments she has. Well, the hot-flashes for me have subsided, thank goodness. During
that time though, I knew a lady who relied on a fan and
a bowl of ice cubes for relief. She was truly debilitated and
miserable over this. I guess I got lucky. I've just "ridden them out"
over the years.

I remember a time when it seemed like every hour on the hour during the work day, the hot-flashes would hit. For at least one solid minute, I was burning up from head to toe. And as fast as it started, it suddenly disappeared. Until the next one. But, I didn't ask my own Doctor about this rhubarb-extract. Don't know why not, just didn't. I got used to just gritting my teeth several times per day. I didn't search out any menopause-relief at all. The common treatment for menopause-symptoms has been hormone-replacement-therapy. Just for the short-term though, due to studies that suggest it may increase the risk for heart disease or breast cancer. The idea of course with HRT, as it is known, is to replace the estrogen the body is losing.
My Mother told me I might get too moody if I took it at all. So,
I didn't do that either. I've just simply put up with it. But,
as I said, I think I have it good compared to some. So many in addition
to the hot-flashes, experience horrible mood swings, insommnia, and night
sweats so bad they literally have to change their bedding daily.
I couldn't resist this cute saying.

The studies carried out by the researchers, took 109 women who were perimenopausal experiencing very frequent hot-flashes. They were divided into two groups, with one group taking a pill which contained ERr-731 in the rhubarb-extract. The other half of the women were given a placebo. These ladies participated in the study for three months. Of this group, the ladies taking the extract clearly reported less
hot-flashes within the first month. The ladies who took the placebo
reported no change in their condition. There appeared to be no
negative side effects in the group overall. Generally, the first
group definately experienced menopause-relief.
