Menopause

I'm 51 years old & started menopause after my birth control "essure" was removed at the age of 47. I sleep with the air conditioning on all seasons, I carry a fan around with me everywhere (restaurants, parties, movies, work, etc.). Night sweats and major hot flashes. Has anyone's body changed after VSG (menopause symptoms went away, got worse or stayed the same)? Trying to prepare myself - surgery date August 27th!

  • Estroven Double Strength was my life saver through menopause. The hot flashes and night sweats woke me up 10-20 times each night. I thought I would kill my whole family before I jumped off the bridge

  • I went through menopause already and the night sweats and hot flashes were the only symptom I had BUT they were horrible and embarrassing. The one thing that I found that finally made them go away was

  • That's exactly how mine were! I had serious doubts about the Estroven even working for me they were so bad, but it did ?

Can someone tell me why I’m still

Having menopause symptoms

After mini VSG ? I only had 60% removed . Currently 5 weeks post op

Fat cells contain and can help create estrogen, so when you loose weight quickly you unlock some of the stores of estrogen. I call it my personal global warming. I’m post menopausal and experienced a fake period, and random hot flashes. I can limit the nighttime flashes by going to bed a little bit hungry. I’m still trying to understand the food hormones and gender hormone links? Anyone else?
Look in to BioTe pellets. They are amazing, I have zero symptoms after getting mine.
