    Hi Carmen, I am new to taking anything for symptoms, but things got crazy so I had to find something. I still have bad days but for the most part things are better. For sleep I take 1mg gummy melatonin, (it's the only one that doesn't give me crazy legs at night) and 100mg of L-Thea nine. For mood, brain fog, night sweats etc. I take a daily multivitamin, a Super B-Complex, and an Estroven, it contains. It is all over the counter, I do not want to try hormone replacement if I don't have to. These are working, I can definitely tell if I forget to take the, but I could use a little more help in the stress and mood relief department.

      Thank you for your help. Ugh I'm sick right now. My right leg is getting a muscle spasms in it and I had a really bad charley horse 2 nights ago and its right in the same spot.

      Hi, Carmen,

      Magnesium is good, but if you can't take the pills (they give some people diarreha) you can use lotion or spray with magnesium in it.  You rub it into your legs and feet after you bathe or shower.  That's what I do!  smile

      I soak in a bath with magnesium I did last night and i felt better. A little leg and feet cramping but not bad. I also have a spray bottle I didn't think it was working.
