But I did ask a bit... I think I've had a few ... but they felt more like a fever coming on... I thought I was getting sick.. Didn't even break out in a sweat.. I have a friend though who has to take a couple showers a day because she breaks out in a soaking sweat...
I don't think the estrogen patch or HRT is necessary for everyone..but for a few who might have really horrible hot flashes or other symptoms very well might need them.
I'm thankful my mom and her 3 sisters never had problems! My 2 older sisters haven't either! So in my case, I'm lucky to have great genes regarding menapausal issues... They are however, chunky genes! :S :S :(
K...love that, "chunky genes!!!"
Me too, but according to some that may be a bonus come mentalpause....fat cells store estrogen!
All in all, it's more of an inconvenience for me than a "misery."
