Does it make a difference if you go through the change nautrally rather then haveing a hystorectomy (sp)? I started in my early 40's and have not had any problems with hot flashes, maybe just flushes every now & then but i can handle those cause i am cold blooded anyways.

Yes, you get estrogen from the dr.
Lynne, I think women who have an early hysterectomy have more symptoms, but it really depends on the individual woman.

I had a hysterectomy at 42. I was taking a little more estrogen, but the doc cut it back a little at a time. You really need to go to the doctor and have your hormone levels checked. There is no need to suffer if you don't have to! If you are having hot flashes that bad, you probably can't sleep, can't concentrate, can't remember...all of those yucky symptoms!! Get some help girl
