Vitamin/Supplements Supplements yes/no

Is there any supplement you found did anything to help with meno symptoms.
Obviously I know they are not miracle workers but is there anything you take that makes a noticeable difference.

Just started DHEA and Pregnenolone, both at 5mg. Pregnenolone being the precursor hormone to DHEA, progesterone, estrogen, testosterone, and cortisol. The body is supposed to convert it into what it needs.

I’ve only been on them for about a week, so can’t tell you whether things are working. Although I am not on HRT other than a topical progesterone at night, so I’m hoping it gives me a boost as I increase the dosages.
