It disrupted my sleep and my daily routine. I was completely miserable. I started taking 1 pill 2 times a day without fail and gave it the full 2 weeks before writing this review. I noticed about day 8 or 9 that I didn’t sweat at all, although I experienced mild warm flashes about 3 times a day and a few times at night. I was completely pleased with the relief, today is day 15 and for the first time in months I slept amazingly well, no hot or warm flashes. These pills are fantastic. I was previously on Bonafide’s Relizen which helped for a couple years with the warm flashes, even eliminating them until I started with the frequent and intense sweat flashes. Which is why I started looking for something else and thankfully found Remifemin.”
