Why Use Natural Menopause Hot Flashes Treatment?
Our Menopause Expert Doctor at Almasi Skincare offers natural menopause hot flashes treatment that does not use HRT (hormone replacement therapy) because the side effects of hormone replacement therapy include developing breast cancer, endometrial cancer, stroke, deep venous thrombosis, pulmonary thrombosis, breast pain, vaginal bleeding, gall bladder disease, bloating, nausea, diarrhea, headache, mood changes, muscle cramps, skin rash, itchy skin, hives, and allergic reactions.
Consequently, our natural menopause hot flashes treatment does not use HRT. It uses nutrition, supplements and lifestyle modifications.

What Causes Menopause Hot Flashes?
Declining estrogen levels cause hot flashes in some women.
Natural Menopause Hot Flashes Treatment
To treat menopause hot flashes naturally, do the following:
Eat soy-rich foods
A study found that taking 40mg of soy isoflavone supplements twice a day for 3 months reduced hot flashes, reduced sleep disturbances, reduced symptoms of depression and reduced sexual dysfunction. Another study found that consuming a low-fat, vegan diet with whole soybeans reduced hot flashes severity and frequency. Another study found that soy isoflavones reduced hot flashes, however, they have to be taken for a long duration (more than 13 weeks) for their maximum effects to be experienced. Other studies suggest that phytoestrogens reduce the frequency of hot flashes in menopausal women.
Therefore, consume soy-rich foods since they contain phytoestrogens known as isoflavones. Note that you need to consume soy for atleast 3 months before you start to feel its effects.
To get started with soy, add roasted, ground soya beans to your smoothies, cereal, teas or warm milk.
Roasted, ground soya can be purchased from our Nairobi Almasi Skincare Shop located on Moi Avenue, Sawa Mall, 3rd floor, Shop C15. Call 0721963156 or WhatsApp +254 721 963 156 to order. We deliver countrywide/worldwide.
