Hot Flashes and Menopause

I've long heard black cohosh is the answer to hot flashes. I had even used it myself and found it very helpful (along with LOTS of other nutritional supplements). I had never heard, however, of cimifuga. According to Dr. Mark Stengler, cimifuga is a Native American herb that has been used for hundreds of years and has been proven effective on not just hot flashes, but depression and insomnia. I'm using bio-identical hormone replacement therapy so I won't be trying this. I hope if you have tried it, you will leave a comment (either good or bad).
