Hot flashes are certainly not rare. Some women sail through the menopause without problems, usually because they are producing enough estrogen from the adrenal gland to help prevent sudden changes in hormone levels.

If you are experiencing excessive hot flashes, you may have some other problems that may be contributing to them. Night sweats and flashes do occur in other conditions besides the menopause.

You might talk to your doctor about trying some other newer methods to control hot flashes that would not pose the same risks estrogen might for you.

Some doctors have reported success in some cases using progesterone, the other main hormone produced by the ovary. Alternatively, there are some very good herbal remedies for menopause that can help in reducing hot flashes.
