None: There are no good studies - only testimonials - as to the efficacy of natural cures or herbs to ease you into menopause or to ameleorate the hot flashes that accompany it.

A few: Probably the most tested is black cohosh (brand name Remifemin) others are classified as "phytoestrogens" like Promensil (from red clover) and Estroven (black cohosh and others). Soy products have been associated with a reduction of symptoms as has Vitamin E. You can address specific symptoms (like moodiness) with individual herbs (St.John's Wort) but the research is sketchy on effectiveness
