Hot flashes for three years during menopause, I am 50 years old this year, how to treat

Patient's question:

Hot flashes during menopause, they haven't improved for 3 years, experiencing many warm episodes every day

Doctor's answer:

Mild cases can be left untreated, and daily care is sufficient. For those with obvious symptoms, estrogen replacement therapy can be chosen. The effectiveness and dosage of estrogen are determined by the frequency of hot flashes. The dosage of estrogen should be kept low, and the medication can be stopped once symptoms subside.
