When does menopause stop?

The hot flashes annoy me tremendously!

I don't know when it stops. Some women breeze right through, and others it seems to last for years. Check with your mom or older female relatives. From what I hear it tends to follow a pattern in related women.
My mom had hot flashes for almost 10 years! Great. But I have been using Evamist (prescription) as an estrogen supplement and it has helped a lot.

67 and still flashing. My gyn says she has pts in their 80's with hot flashes. My mom claimed she never had a one.

Dear g-d I had a terrible thought that maybe mine hasn't even started in earnest yet. Maybe I've got 10 more years and this is just the beginning!???!

It's called peri menopause. It can last 10 years.
