Natural menopause remedies

I am burning up from hot flashes during the night. I know that there are prescription medications for menopause, but I'd like to try a natural remedy before I head to my doctor. The herbs I've heard work for menopause are dong quai, red clover and black cohosh. Has anyone used these herbs? I'm hesitant to just go to my health food store and drop a bunch of money on stuff that might not work. I don't take any other medications, so I'm not worried about drug interactions. Thanks.

Angry about HPV

I am very upset right now. I got diagnosed with HPV 4 days ago. I had had the same sexual partner (my now ex-boyfriend) for 3 years. He is the one who gave it to me. I know he didn't know he had it, but I am still hurt. I will now have this for life. He could have had it all along, but why wouldn't I have had symptoms before? I think he was sleeping with someone else and contracted it recently. So far, the mental anguish over this is very terrible. I don't know what to do or how to go forward with my life. I have lost my boyfriend.

HELP! I'M UNABLE TO URINATE

Hi everybody out there: I feel so silly to post this, looking for help from anybody who knows anything about my condition, or who could steer me to a urologist or any doctor who could help me. I am unable to urinate and the problem has been getting worse and worse starting about 4 years ago after several illnesses. My doctor did her best, even to the extent of installing a "device" that would hold up my bladder and colon." Well, things got worse, in addition. I am now unable to eliminate anything.

Going off antidepressants?

Hi, I have been taking Paxil for four years. I began taking it when I lost my job and got divorced, I felt like I was losing my mind. Now, I am much more positive and feel a lot better. Do I need to consult my doctor before I go off my antidepressants? I don't have much money, and I'd like to avoid having to take time off work if I don't have to. Could I just wean myself off of it? What do you guys think?

Majorly Depressed

I am majorly depressed. I know this. I am having all the symptoms - crying for no reason, trouble sleeping, sometimes sleeping too much... loss of appetite, starting to lose my will to live. I have been depressed before, but never this bad. I really need to see a psychologist, but I had no idea how i find a good one. i need someone who will be willing to be sensitivity to my fears of therapy. I don't want to go to my doctor because i don't want antidepressants pushed upon me. but i don't know where to turn or how to find someone to help me. i really need to talk to someone soon.

Is there anyone out there like me

I have primary biliary cirrohsis which you'd think by now i could spell correctly. I have had this at least 8 years and suffer from many of the symptions. I had to have my gallbladder removed a year ago because of developing gallstones which clogged a duct and i almost went into liver failure. I an lucky that my doctor is at Loma Linda University Medical Center Liver Transplant dept. I find that i have no one who truly understands how hard it is to live with the side effects and damage being caused to my body and hope someone out there can/will share.

skin blisters extremely itchy

Our family has been suffering some sort of skin rash for well over a month, with the exception of our oldest boy. We all seem to be getting some kind of blisters, that when scratched release clear fluid and then dry up but remain itchy for days...even weeks! They are not bites...there is no center indicating a sting. They are like heat blisters but extremely itchy like flea bites. They resemble impentego (excuse the spelling) but they do not form yellow crusts and are not on anybody's face except mine. They are effecting all parts of the body in varying degree's.
