[quote=Anonymous]I’m 45 and hot flashes started last week with aplomb! I’ve been waking up at night. I think they are perimenopause related but might also be thyroid related (I have family history). I would love to hear from the real women of DCUM what works for them to lessen symptoms (other than HRT, I will discuss that with my doctor but would like to avoid). Does avoiding caffeine and spicy foods actually do anything? Somehow I’m doubtful but willing to try… What about OTC estrogen creams? Other tips?[/quote]
