    I don’t, and can’t. I would die. No one realizes how bad it is until they go through it. I had my doctor put me on HRT.

    I know I’ll be hated but my menopause consisted of my periods stopping. That was it, no moods, no sweats, nothing. Sorry!!!

    I couldn’t Obtain ‘real’ Hrt, but oestrogen/ progestérone Pill helped

    My NP suggested seed cycling and that seems to help me. I thought it was a little woo when she told me about it but it’s been better since I started about 3 months ago. Even if it’s a placebo effect, I’ll take it.

    EVENING PRIMROSE OIL

    I think you need a lot, like over 1100mg per day.

    That’s what helped my mom and she had terrible night sweats because she had thyroid cancer during her menopause.

    HRT. 😂 But seriously, still figuring this out too. I usually just feel uncomfortable and throw my blankets off. 🙃
