Hot Flashes!

Curious if anyone else experiences hot flashes from chemo or maintenance therapy? I had six cycles of Herceptin, perjeta, and taxotere last year, dropped taxotere in February of 2014 and have since continued Herceptin and perjeta every three weeks. When I was diagnosed with stage 4 HER2 bc I was already on the other side of menopause; no hot flashes or vaginal dryness. I tried Brisdelle and it has helped but never completely stopped the hot flashes so I have decided to stop taking it. Will the hot flashes ever stop while I am on these drugs, Herceptin and perjeta?
