Suggest Treatment For Hot Flushes After Hysterectomy ?

Hello, I had a full hysterectomy on june 30, feeling ok, but would like to gather information about two things. First, hot flashes aren t too bad and few during the day, but up every couple hours at night. Prefer not to take estrogen replacement as I have a breast cancer hx. and second, I m at my 4 wk nothing over 10lb lifting limit and would like advice for getting back to performance level and ability to lift 50lb to return to work on 8-25. I work in healthcare and have this as a requirement.
