Estradiol
Well, I did it! After much research.....talking for about 30 minutes with my GYN and reminding myself that quality of life is important too. I started taking 1 mg of Estradiol...i.e. estrogen replacement. My hot flashes started 7 ears ago, at age 45 when chemo started. In all theses 7 years I have not had much of a break. The past year and a half the flashes are as bad as back in the chemo days. Hell! I work in a kitchen with 2 ovens......those who suffer bad hot flashes need no more info. than that....2 ovens a hot kitchen OY! Not to mention my sex drive and physical symptoms are BAD! And, sleep.......what's that. A hot flash every hour on the hour doesn't give a body much rest. SO......that's it. I am going this route. Praying the hot flashes are history soon.
Anyone else go this route.....I am er/pr negative.
Blessings all.....
