For me, this therapy has help me to subside the side effects that I was enduring with menopause. I had several symptoms such as night sweats, waking up drenched, having to change sheets and clothing two to three times week. Hot flashes during the day, vaginal dryness, weight gain, tender breasts, decreased sex drive, etc... You name it, I had it. These troches that I take have been positively a huge asset for me during this time.
