Alternative herbal remedies

Hello. I’ve completed RT and now taking Anastrozole.
I’m struggling massively with hot flushes, brain fog, fatigue and very broken sleep patterns.
I’ve ordered D3 / K2 tablets and want to make sure K2 is ok.


Also I’ve been taking Menopace Plus but has anyone had good results from any other supplements that could help with menopause symptoms. Sleep and hot flushes are the worst. Thankyou

Hi @meech , I’m sorry you haven’t had a reply to your post. You could maybe ask about this in the Ask our Nurses your questions sectiknof the forum for their advice ? Best wishes Jill .

Hi there,
I am on anastrozole too and do check with your oncologist and specifically the hospital pharmacist who will advise. I was told no tumeric and no high level vitamin c, no revive products and take one centrum multivitamin . Melatonin is allowed. I am on also on glucosamine sulphate for joints.

I have found acupuncture very good for a range of symptoms and I do it weekly as a result.

Best way to help is plenty of exercise. Alcohol definitely makes everything worse too although I still enjoy it but not too often and have swapped wine for cava which is lighter in alcohol. My oncologist recommended giving up caffeine which has really helped re digestion.

I sound a bit of a killjoy here but making a few small changes has helped a lot.

Good luck
