Flip Fellow Flushers, Jeez hasn't it been unbearable. Tho' today I actually felt quite cold!! I feel a right miz in Summers, I try not to complain about it because I think it's lovely for other people to enjoy. I used to find daily Evening Primrose helped, but I understand that it may not always be suitable for certain BC ladies, due to controversy about whether it mimics oestrogen too closely. There's are other studies that state it helps prevent oestrogen driven cancers by latching onto the oestrogen receptors, rather than the oestrogen itself. If you're thinking of trying, it may be best to check with onco's first. But I switched to high dose fish oils this year and they also seem to help me. I certainly notice if I forget to take one. My flushes are natural menopausal though, not induced by Tamox or the like. But can't really see the difference really. Both due to decreased or inhibited oestrogen. Lilacmoon - Yeh sounds very much down to Tamox. I was only on the tabs for two months at 46, so was premenopause at the time, and I remember thinking and saying, I now know what women are complaining about. I came off it due to feeling it exacerbated my depression. I'm keen to know how you get on with Sage Tea and Acupuncture girls. Keep posting will you. Delly xxx
