The first and only one symptom of menopause for me is insomnia. I have been suffering now nearly 15 years. HRT treatment has eased it for a while but now my body totally rejects it so it's very difficult to work and carry on as before. Anyone has had similar experience or any way of copying with the lack of sleep?

For me its the night sweats but i found a great product in spain that seems to have helped with that problem its called bedfan and it blows cool fresh air between the sheets its great its some of the other symptoms i cant cope with lol

Insomnia can really be a problem during menopause. Try relaxing techniques like yoga sessions, meditations, and aerobic classes.

hotandsweaty, i've heard of this one. it's a gadget that you attach to your mattress. i know people are using this to save money on air condition. yes, this could really help with night sweats! i haven't thought of this one until i've read your post.. thanks for the info!

hey, i've heard of this one from a friend. i went through my computer to search it online and was very amazed with all the comments. especially with women experiencing hot flushes and they say it really helped them go to sleep.

hotandsweaty - September 11th, 2009 6:57 AM
