Suggest Medication For Memory Loss, Weight Gain And Mood Swings

I have severe hot flashes like wringing wet every 7-10 minutes and my memory just feels foggy. I ve tried a patch and did not like it at all. Now the Dr. is trying me on these pills: Medroxyprogesterone 2.5 mg and Estradiol 1 mg. daily, I am 47 and have NOT had a hysterectomy and never given birth. I would like to know your suggestion for the very best medication to combat the foggy memory and weight gain and mood swings. My Name is Elle Thank you

Hello Elle. Insteand of estrogen replacement therapy i would suggest you to try Pueraria Mirifica which is a plant that contains phytoestrogens , is 100% natural and it helps relieve annoying symptoms such as hot flashes and there are so many other benefits for skin ,hair,memory,bone loss ,cardiovascular system etc.PM doesn't simply mimic estrogen in the body the way that other therapies do, whether bio-identical or not. Instead, the herb (much like the human byproduct it resembles) acts on estrogen receptors. In more clear terms, it acts as a balancing agent: When levels of estrogen are too high, PM will tie up receptors to weaken the hormone's effects-when levels are low, the herb exerts the necessary estrogenic activity without actually increasing the amount of estrogen in your body. Anyway if u have any other question about it feel free to ask me .
Kind regards
