Hello. : Hello. There is very little information provided here. Don't know if you have had your ovaries removed. If you are not a candidate for hormone replacement therapy, you might want to consider a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor like lexapro (escitalopram). Many women have had success with this.

Yes. Sometimes mind-body medicine interventions like hypnotherapy are beneficial.
