Hi, I am 52 and have been in full menopause for over a year now. I was around 150 pounds a year ago, which went out of control the same time as the menopause. I have gained an extreme amount of weight, which I can't seem to lose. My clothes fit tight, and I am so frustrated and uncomfortable. Sometimes I look in the mirror and wonder when I became 9 months pregnant again. These are not exaggerations. What can I do about this? Hopefully someone has the answers.
As for hot flashes, I found Black Cohosh works really well.
