Suggest Treatment For Hot Flashes, Mood Swings And Hot Flashes Post A Hysterectomy

I had a hysterectomy in 2013. I kept my ovaries but I am having hot flashes, mood swings and no sex drive. is there a medicine that can help me with these symptoms? I tried estradiol once but gained 15 pounds in 2 weeks so I quit taking it. is there a medicine that does not have weight gain as a side effect?

Hello,

The symptoms described by you - hot flushes, mood swings etc are seen during the peri-menopausal period.

I suggest you consult your gynaecologist for clinical assessment and prescription of safe hormonal preparation.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care
