I wasn't sure where to post this. I'm just starting the super fun process of menopause and am experiencing hot flashes. They are especially bothersome when I'm in my bootcamp class! I've tried Estroven, which seemed to work for a few weeks, then it just didn't anymore. Someone recommended Vitamin E, but I have not tried it yet. Any suggestions welcome.

    Alcohol, caffeine, and spicy food make them worse; eliminating those should help a bit.

    They will also decrease in intensity over time.
