No more hot flashes!

Tink · 03-26-2008, 05:58 PM

I'm going to have to change my signature... the hot flashes have quit!
I decided to try Black Cohosh tablets and they've worked wonderfully for me!
So I wanted to share in case anyone else is going through this... It's a SUPER relief to be rid of them and NO side affects from it!

$5.79 for a one month supply... WELL worth it!

Okay now...what the heck is this stuff and where would I get it if I decide to?

I use Premarin (the lowest dose) and mostly for the hot flashes. Since I had my hysterectomy, I can't be without the hormones or the hotlfashes come back. The hormones really are not the best things to take, ya know.

Tink · 03-26-2008, 06:48 PM

Janet, you will find it in the pharmacy vitamin and supplements isle or in WalMArt... it's very common. Having had a heart attack a few years ago I can't take hormones so have just been suffering it out until I got this. I have quite a few allergies and often have nasty side affects from different meds and have been on this over a month and all it's done is stop the hot flashes. I love it!

Wow!! I"m glad that you found something that worked for you! I think that vitamin E is good for something too but I can't remember what. So I guess that you could suppose that it's not for memory!!!! LOL

Tink · 03-27-2008, 08:51 AM

Vitamin E is good for the heart, skin and hair. It's also good to promote healing such as in cases of thrush and works as a stool softner. LOL

I'm on IT too.

DianaB · 03-27-2008, 09:29 AM

I think that it's suppose to boost your immune system too. I know that I don't "catch" as many colds and flu since I started taking it. I thought that it was good for hot flashes to but I guess not, since you're already taking it!!

Janet · 03-27-2008, 01:14 PM

Tink you have been so helpful to me...you are amazing!

katcarasella · 03-27-2008, 02:21 PM

I'd give anything for a Flash about now.

Tink · 03-27-2008, 02:21 PM

Thank Janet. I know how miserable and frustrating hot flashes are, and if something works we might as well spread the word!

goofywife · 04-02-2008, 06:53 PM

I feel lucky. I never got hot flashes. I had other things but no, flashes.

Tink · 04-02-2008, 07:11 PM

Michelle, that IS lucky. They're hatefull.

Janet · 04-03-2008, 05:25 AM

They really are awful. I sweat bad enough without having hot flashes to deal with.

DianaB · 04-03-2008, 03:22 PM

When I have one I don't sweat, I just get hot real quick and then it's over. It doesn't last very long at all.

Janet · 04-03-2008, 03:28 PM

Mine would feel like a rush of warmth and then my forehead would get sweaty. I don't have them with the Premarin, but I'd rather not take a hormone if I don't have to. So I really want to try those Black Cohosh tablets Tink is recommending. I want to check with my Dr. first though.
