alternatives to hormone replacement therapy?

Question

Has anybody found any good alternatives to hormone replacement therapy that realy works?
Hotflashes are the real problem.

Answer 1

I would also talk with a nutritionist, naturopathic doctor or have some acupuncture.
Black cohosh or soy works great for hot-flashes.

Answer 2

Actually there is none. All the info about black cohot and other natural stuff like soy etc. had little or no effect on most women.
Unfortunately no alternative that cuts down the hot flashes and other disturbing symptoms has been found so far.
