It does wonders with the hot flashes. Get on their mailing list, and you can get coupons and all sorts of good advice. They have a night-time formula, too. However, I have found that MidNite (regular or menopause formulas) is just as effective to help dealing with sleep disruptions, at half the price. It has pretty much the same stuff in it as the Remifemin PM.
