Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Hot flashes and night sweats can happen while you're taking Letrozole. These symptoms happen because of the effects these medicines have on estrogen.
If the hot flashes continue you should consult your doctor about an alternative medication.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
