Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
I can understand your concern. For severe symptoms of menopause like you are having, Both hormonal and non hormonal options are available for these symptoms.
But it is advisable to use these drugs only after a doctor’s prescription. It is not to be taken without a medical supervision. Your doctor may decide that the benefits outweigh the risks in individual circumstances and after a careful assessment of your specific health situation can prescribe the patch or therapy best suitable for you.
Since I haven’t physically examined you, it is inappropriate and unethical to
prescribe you scheduled drugs that you can order online. I am bound by the rules of law to not to give any online prescriptions.
I would encourage you to review with a competent gynecologist for detailed evaluation and the treatment
Hope this answers your query. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.

Wishing you good health.
