Post menopause, I was really having trouble sleeping, especially staying asleep, as I would wake up in the middle of the night and not be able to get back to sleep. This fixed that problem. I would still often wake up in the middle of the night, but I was able to remain calm and doze off again. Since going on HRT, I don't have much need for it — I actually sleep well again! As stated in the directions, this remedy works best after taking it consistently for 3-4 weeks, though I found it does work immediately. You just won't get the full benefit at first.
