The symptoms that the patient presents are premenopausal symptoms and should be treated with herbal and homeopathic remedies.

We can arrive at this answer as follows:

  • The patient is 46 years old, which means she is in a phase where estrogen levels will begin to drop, marking the onset of menopause.
  • Menopause starts between 45 and 55 years of age with symptoms such as hot flashes, night sweats, vaginal dryness, and urinary symptoms (genitourinary symptoms).

These problems happen because of the progressive decrease in estrogen. They can be treated with the ingestion of herbal and homeopathic remedies, which seek to normalize hormone levels.

Through questions similar to yours, we can see that your question wants a case study to be done on the patient.
