what can i take to relieve hot flushes after hysterectomy
Posted , 3 users are following.
after persistently going to gp and being told my symptons were the menopause i have just been treated for endometrial cancer which thankfully was caught early.
i am bemused why it was not suggested to me earlier that abnormal bleeding could be a cuse for concern but my main aim is to control the flushes. i am not allowed to have anything oestrogen based.
Would it be wise to get my hormones checked out. GP is useless.

I had a similar operation a year ago and my menopause symptoms all heightened and has made me miserable. I researched every remedy possible to get my health and moods under control and came across a book called, Natural Alternatives to HRT, Cook Book. It's really good reading and full of ideas. Diet helps but doesn't alleviate all my symptoms but at least I know that I'm doing all I can to help myself. Alcohol is a no no for me now, even one glass of wine with my supper will cause me to have hot flushes through the night.
And I agree with Cindy, flaxseed really helps, sprinkle it on top of porridge for a nice crunchy texture.
Let me know how you get on.
