Anything that can raise your body temperature even a little can trigger a hot flash. So hot and spicy foods may be flash makers, so might hot drinks and even alcohol. Wine causes flashes for me...Stay hydrated with plenty of water. Pay attention to your own food triggers, and avoid eating or drinking anything that trips your flash button. Once your hormones even out, you will probably be able to eat those things again. I have never been on HRT or will I ever. Best fo Luck to you Susan, and welcome to the next stage of our lives. ..Lissette |
I am going to try it for 3 weeks, what the doctor suggested, fortunately I drink no caffiene or alcohol just water and milk. She gave me an antidepressant if this doesn't work, Effexor XR, several women I talked with said this helped them a lot. Thank you for you suggestions.
