pegm,

The hot flashes are a personal thing - they can go away after a time, or, like my mom (who is going on 74) STILL gets hot flashes daily!!

My doc has been testing my blood every 6 months or so and has told me that my levels aren't there yet, but I have started with the hot flashes already - this summer has been a ROYAL PAIN, believe me!! the heat just aggravates my flashes. By the time I am done curling my hair (with a fan on behind me FULL BLAST), my hair is wet and straight. I walk around with my nightshirt under my boobs to soak up the sweat, as well as under the tummy (but THAT is now going away - yay!!! )

My TOM is now every two weeks, but only 1-1/2 - 2 days long.

I am just waiting for the cool weather to come - this weekend!!
