A doctor has provided 1 answer
Many options: The most effective remedy is estrogen but it's hazardous; consider a small dose of transdermal estradiol, but first try alternatives. 3 herbs many find effective are Estrovera (a rhubarb extract), Vitex and Puereria Mirifica (look them up). Homeopathy can help as well, esp. Sepia, but treatment should be individualized. Diet and lifestyle changes can be crucial- see https://tinyurl.com/mx7x9eb
