Fogging out here....any OTC or herbs for this?

I am only using natural progesterone cream and a bunch of vitamins. After 6 1/2 months, the hot flashes are minimal....however...the BRAIN FOG is awful.

I have been having a terrible time trying to remember things that were told to me just minutes before. I can't get my words to come out....well heck...I can't even think of the words I need.

before I go to a neurologist, I strongly suspect this is hormone-related. Has anyone had any luck with an OTC product or an herb for memory?



thanks!

Hi Lisa,

I have heard that the herb ginko biloba is good for forgetfulness and brain fog. I have not used it, but others have.

Here is some info on it:

Just a reminder, to be sure these herbs do not interfere with other medications from your dr. Always check with dr to be sure.
