Do Hot Flashes Ever Stop?

No. LOL! 😂😂😂 Hot flashes started when I was 45. I timed them... 3 per hour or every 20 minutes. My OB gave me hormone pills. It helped. But, at 48 I had BC. Then, 5 years hormone therapy, and still had hot flashes. Finished hormone therapy and still had hot flashes. 2016 I have MBC, back on hormone therapy, and still have hot flashes. I'm 70. 36 years of hot flashes. 2 years is nothing. Just yank all your clothes off and jump in a cold shower. Or jump in the shower with your clothes on. Seriously, I can empathize. They will be fewer and you can get through this. I love my life and I love you 💞

On veozah which helps some. Makes me crazy when I get out of the shower and bam hot flash from hell. Last winter my boyfriend asked what I was doing said looking for a tank top he thought I was crazy. Hate this damn disease and wish my older cat would have found it sooner then maybe I wouldn't have been told it's terminal

Live in Washington state how about you

I have had hot flashes since the age of 48, I am 65 now. Whether or not I was on hormone therapy, I still get them. On Kisquali and Letrozole now and hot flashes are pretty extreme. Maybe I was being prepared for the future back then and now have just learned to live with them being so extreme.

They have been getting even worse

Talk with your Dr. I take an antidepressant and it helps a lot.

I'm on veoza, cymbalta

No, not for me. I’m hot flashing and texting. Heat surges are constant. I never thought I would be a hot mama at sixty nine 😂 best wishes.

Oxybutynin and clonidine are really helping me along with Veozah. Oxybutynin info https://ascopost.com/issues/january-25-2019/oxybutynin-for-managing-hot-flashes/ Clonidine info https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/7145250/
