	It is Kay, as is most fish, but it's also full of phyto-oestrogens... Combine that and soya and it's no wonder they've never heard of menopause. So...the question is, do Japanese women not have it because of their diet...or do western women have it because of our diet? What did our ancestors do?

	I wouldn't touch soya products with a dead fish I wouldn't ! It's all genetically modified ..... I'd rather have a hot flush than grow an ear on my back ! TW .... my Nan swore by " having a wash , putting on a clean vest and going for a walk " as a general cure all ..... if it was good enough for them then it's good enough for me :-D

	She was right, walking is a good cure-all, keeps you fit and makes you feel good. Remember people used to go for their 'consititutional' after lunch?

	I had night sweats for a few months before the you-know-whats stopped altogether, and get the occasional hot flush, but thats all. I know I've been very lucky. What they don't tell you is when the PMT symptoms disappear too. I still get some PMT symptoms even though there hasn't been anything at the end of it for more than 5 years. turns nose up at sushi :-S

	My monthlies became religious festivalies. Like one at Christmas, one at Easter and I can recall having a kind of grand finale for the Queen Mother's funeral. The hot flushes were the only time my ankles sweated. The only big downside I have found is the beard which,if not carefully controlled, can quite easily make me look like Santa.
