Sorry about making this post. I KNOW there was a recent thread on this topic but I can't find it. Maybe the heading isn't obvious? Anyway, hsterectomy in thirties and been taking HRT ever since - oestrogen only - am now 52. Stopped the HRT (Premarin) a few weeks ago and am now going crazy with hot flushes - every half hour/24 hrs. a day. Don't want to return to HRT and would like to find the suggestions made in the earlier posting. Any help gratefully received.
Regards,
Sue Smith.

Have you read the latest American report on oestrogen only therapy. Apparently no increased incidence in breast cancer. A very small increase in stroke. The latter could possibly be prevented with low dose aspirin.

You have my sympathy............I came off HRT last September after 9 years and suffered immediately with the hot flushes, and arn't they AWFUL. I now take soya and wild yam, the latter helping immensley. However, I'm not sure if these can be bought here.......my supply comes from the UK.
