I tried starflower oil about 6 months ago for flushes and it worked brilliantly so much so I stopped it .the flushes has come back with a vengeance and I have re started it ,problem is it doesn't seem to be doing much good I am now taking 2000mg per day and still flushing especially at night where sometimes I don't feel that I have slept at all  .any ideas guys I read an earlier post of someone taking folic acid is this any good and what strength it recommended

ARe you peri menopausal? I'm afraid the meno symptoms will fluctuate with your hormones so you may be experiencing a bigger dip in your oestrogen levels.  I think Starflower will only help to balance the hormones - it won't replace the oestrogen that your body is craving and giving you all the nasty flushes etc.  Sadly only HRT will help this.
