What Causes Hot Flashes And Sweating After Taking Estrace And Prometrium?
Hello, my questions are, I have been taking estrace and prometrium for menopause for several years. I have recently very gradually decreased my dose until I am not taking any. It has been two weeks and I am having lots of hot flashes and sweats (night and day) and wonder if that is a side effect of withdrawal of medication or return of menopausal symptoms. I haven t had a period for about 8 years. Any advice would be appreciated.
