LOL, Abby, I've tried it all--diet, supplements (evening primrose, flax oil, vitex chaste, soy isoflavones, progesterone cream, estrogen cream, Vit B 12, etc). I even did a series of acupuncture treatments, to no avail. The endocrine and neurological systems, or the body systems in general are so interdependent, I am afraid there is no simple fix.

Like Abby, I was anxiously waiting to see if natural menopause would make a difference. I was definitely in peri-menopause at the time of the chemo and things were actually getting worse by the month, so I don't know if eventually things would have reversed or improved. I have a friend with MG who has gone through natural meno, and there is some difference in her symptoms (in a good way) but even she is still on a multitude of MG drugs and is still very much affected by MG.

It's always something!
