I was loosing my hair, and had irregular stuff that was pretty bad. Through word of mouth I was told about natural progesterone. I used it and it is amazing how it balanced out everything. Buy your wife the book by Dr. Lee, "What your Doctor Won't tell you about menopause." But, after being told about the natural progesterone, I read his first book, "What your Dr. Won't tell you about Perimenopause".
Natural progesterone is found in natural food stores. Look for the brand Emerita's Pro-gest. It is one of the several brands and I think the most popular that is sold. The progesterone contained in the base of the cream is an exact replica of the molecule of progesterone produced in the body. It is not pharmaceutical progesterone, which is not and exact replica. It does not have to be prescribed.
It's secret is really no secret. It balances out estrogen dominance in a woman's body that can happen at certain phases of her life. Many times according to Dr. Lee's book, pharmacuetical estrogen will be prescribed for menopause, and we now know about the ill-effects of that.
I had a breast cancer tumor removed and radiation 16 years ago. So, believe me, I do a lot of reading on health issues, and try to separate the chaff from the truth. I think it is an amazing creme. It has been around for years. And an amazing amount of women have used it at some time or another and swear by it. It is available without prescription and you don't really see it advertised. Word of mouth and positive anecdotes and outcomes are it's selling tools.
So, buy the book and it will show in laymans detailed terms how the progesterone molecule works. Then maybe your wife will be able to make and informed decision for herself either way. Hope this helps. As always research the subject. I have 2 kidneys, fortunately. I do know the natural progesterone has a very calming effect, also reported by other women. I feel for your wife. Good luck.

Get enough calcium. A woman going through menopause needs 1000 mg to 1500 mg of calcium a day. Avoid excessive amounts of salt to reduce bloating associated with hormonal changes. More information and remedies at http://useinfo4.blogspot.com/

Black cohash, melatonin, good luck. Make sure she changes those antidepressants regularly. they have a tendency not to work in the long run. And be careful of side effects. Zoloft can make you angrier, Effexor, more suicidal. Wellbutrin is pretty mild and will help her even keel.

I agree that natural progesterone may help her. It is certainly worth trying and has to be better than anti- depressants.
