I had a total hysto 2 years back, I'm 48 and i work out an hour every night, I'm trying to eat right. Weight is a slow battle, but hot flashes and such? Are there any vitamins i should try? I'm taking no hormone replacements at all, I've tried even a cream and i gain 5 lbs in a day. Would love to have something to help with symptoms.

    Progesterone cream? Yeah, it can certainly cause water retention.

    Hot flashes aren't my "thing" (so far). Hopefully someone else has suggestions!

    I've been taking a product called Menoquil since Jan. It has helped with my hot flashes and with sleeping better. I order it online.

    I tried a homeopathic medicine - Lachsis Mutus - which helped me. My co-worker has been suffering from hot flashes quite a bit lately and this remedy seems to be helping her somewhat as well. I only take it when they get bad, not constantly.

    I am having terrible hot flashes and not sleeping well. My doctor suggested Femarelle. So far after 2 weeks I have noticed no change at all. I have been reading about Menoquil as hhsteacher stated above. It has good reviews on the internet. Anyone have any input re these products?
