Hello,
Hot flushes and flashes are due to your perimenopause. Vagina also becomes dry. Symptoms of menopause are due to lack of estrogen.
Premarin is a conjugated estrogen that replenishes it and reduces symptomatology.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
