Menopause
Lidybeff in Australia asked:


I am unable to take hormone replacement as my cancer was hormone sensitive. I am 7 weeks into surgical menopause and went straight from regular ovulation to losing my ovaries , and everything else. I am coping with the hot episodes (and am grateful to now be cancer free) but would appreciate any tips anyone could give me on how to lessen them or ease them. I can’t take any hormones, not even plant based ones. Thanks.

Jacob

    there isn’t much you can do except suffer through them. i have fans in every room, and i turn them on when i need them, even in winter. it will eventually get better as time goes on, but i found that the hot flashes came far more frequently at the beginning.

    My mother put two air conditioners in her bedroom. She had those gel ice packs (which she would put on the back of her neck) and was always drinking ice water.
    She was 47 when she started going through the change and confined to bed with emphysema, so she had to find some way to keep herself cool without being able to just get up and hop into a cold shower or stick her head in a freezer.
    If I was there sweets, I would fan you all day and not talk dirty…cuz I’m helpful like that. :) Good luck xoxo Dawna
