“Gabapentin, a medication commonly used for neurologic conditions, can also improve sleep by relieving anxiety and night sweats,” she says. Additionally, there are plenty of nonprescription ways to assuage the symptoms too.

Ahead, find five products and tools that aim to make the menopausal experience more comfortable.
