Hi Lora. When I was trying to understand phytoestrogens I got a few books out from the library on menopause and hrt therapy which has/was used over here in my country. The books explain in great detail why the hormones the dr's suggest fail and also make great suggestions to which herbs help with the menopausal process, I cant remember which ones but first thing I'd do is send Anty the library or maybe see what you can find on amazon. For instance I never knew there were good and bad estrogens, I just thought there was one hormone estrogen and that was that, so hopefully this will help her to understand it abit more
