Gone Through Menopause. Is It Related To Hot Flashes? Increase The Dosage Of Hormones?
I am 48 and have gone through menopause over a year ago. I was having so many hot flashing, sometimes 3 an hour that my doctor put me on hormone replacement. I have been taking both estrogen and progestone for almost a year. This past week I m starting to have the flashes again, I m tried, and am sometimes have nausea . Do I need to increase my dose of hormones?

Hi,
Just check with doctor to adjust dosage of hormones. Sometimes mild dose increment may be necessary.
Wish you good health.
