Background
• Women in Western countries have more experience menopausal symptoms particularly than in Asia
• Complementary and Alternative Medicine (CAM) is an alternative solution due to the negative effects of hormonal therapy
• Numerous studies about the effects of herbal therapies on hot flashes and other symptoms have been conducted with inconsistent results
• To date no published systematic reviews of effects of herbal therapies on multiple symptoms

Purpose
To determine the effects of herbal preparations on hot flashes and at least one of other symptoms including sleep, cognitive function, mood, and pain symptoms that women experience during the menopausal transition and early postmenopause.

Conclusion
• Herbal therapies may offer promise in management of multiple symptoms, particularly black cohosh mixed with Phyto-female complex or St. John wort; Rheum rhaponticum; and French maritime pine bark
• Mostly herbal therapies showed significant effects on sleep and mood symptoms, especially black cohosh, mixed black cohosh, Rheum rhaponticum, and French maritime pine bark
• Black cohosh alone showed less significant results on hot flashes and other symptoms
• Dose? Duration of study? Number of participants?

Limitation & Future Studies
• Limitation
- Variety of dose, duration, measurement- Small number of studies and participants- Unreported symptoms especially cognitive symptoms
• Future Studies - More studies with adequate sample size and longer
duration of treatment - Using standardized instruments and provide specific
information for each symptom
