I took Premarin from 1991 to March 1997.  It worked very well from me in taking care of hot flashes, night sweats and mood swings.   When I received my diagnosis of breast cancer, my oncologist took me off of the Premarin as I tested estrogen positive.  As if I wasn't miserable enough from treatment, I was constantly uncomfortable from vasomotor reactions.  My reactions were so severe that my friends were often concerned that I was having angina or something else far more threatening than hot flashes.  My husband said that he didn't know that anyone could get that warm without spontaneous combustion.

I have spent the last 20 months on the Internet and in the medical school library looking for help.   So many of the studies that show scientific significance for soy products also mention that with breast cancer patients there may not be a very significant real time help.  I was very skeptical when my doctor gave me a bottle of Flav-Ein.

I took about 4 or 5 days for me to notice the effect at first, but the two capsules I take each morning have reduced the number of hot flashes from nearly hourly to 3 or 4 per day.  Without Premarin, my reactions ranged from a mild blush (very rare) to rivulets falling from my hair and ears (more often the case).  Night sweats used to cause me to have to change my pajamas, bed linens and pillows half way through the night.  I got really tired of doing laundry.  At work, it was necessary for me to keep a large fan on my desk pointing right at my face.  I was miserable most of the time.  I have had to turn the fan on perhaps only a half a dozen times in the last two months.  It has been like a miracle.

I started taking your product after learning about the benefits of soy products from a dietitian.  As a pharmacist, I researched the medical literature and was amazed at the volume of research concerning isoflavones.   I was having approximately 10 hot flashes a day as a result of premature menopause induced by chemotherapy.  I am not a candidate for hormone replacement therapy.  Within one week of beginning Flav-Ein my hot flashes were reduced by 50%, both in number and severity.

I have tried soy food products, but, it was very difficult to eat enough soy on a daily basis to achieve the benefits of isoflavones.  The expense was also prohibitive.   I am grateful there is a natural product available to treat hot flashes.

Since you have introduced this product to me several months ago I have distributed it to numerous patients with problems with perimenopausal symptoms.  I have been very pleased with the results as have my patients.  It has gone a long way to relieving their hot flashes and improving their energy and mood swings while they are going through the menopausal process.  This product is very valuable for patients for medical reasons who aren't able to take estrogen replacement therapy but also can be used as an adjunct for those people who do take estrogen.  All the patients that I have tried it on have been very impressed with the results and are extremely pleased that there are no side effects that are sometimes associated with the estrogen replacement therapy.   I would heartily recommend your product to all my patients with menopausal symptoms and glad to support you in any way.
