I will be 50 years old this year, but I've noticed a pain in my hands and fingers. I sometimes feel very cold and I have a very stiff neck. Can you help me?

Falling oestrogen at this time can affect the joints but it is also a good idea to get this checked out by your doctor as well.

In the meantime, you may find Devils Claw helpful for the pains. You could also try sage for the cold, some women do get cold flushes rather than hot ones.
