Done Hysterectomy. Took Low Dose Hormomes. Having Hot Falshes And Night Sweats. Reason? Treatment?

I am a 61 year old female. I am having hot flashes and night sweats. I should be done with all that in my opinion. I had surgery years ago and had everything removed. Complete hystrectomy, nothing left. Took hormomes for years very low dose. Off now for about 2 months. Now hot flashes and night sweats, why and how to get rid of them. HELP!.

Hi,
Welcome to healthcaremagic '
These complains are quite common in postmenopausal age and vary from person to person .
the low dose hormones helped you to take care of these symptoms . Since you have stopped taking the medicine the symptoms appearing.
besides medicines taking regular exercises and some food items like soyabeans,
nuts, pulse , grams in your diet will help .
your gynecologist will help you deciding the supplements and medicines for the condition .

Avoiding synthetic cloths and wearing light cotton dresses and and airy rooms with controlled temp will help.
Hope your problems are solved and you lead a healthy life .
