"i am 46 years old and have been struggling with hot flashes for 8 years, and more severe now that i have had a total hysterectomy.  the side affects of menopause for me have been severe hot flashes all day and all night.  i have declined to take unnatural replacements. a week ago i began to take 10 mg melatonin (quick disolve).  i am still waking up throwing the covers off and feeling like my bed is going to catch fire due to the extreme heat of my body..however, i am finally able to fall back to sleep, and feel rested in the morning.  i am pleased with the this supplement and i will continue to take it."
