I've been in menopause for 10 years. Every time I'm cold I sure do wish I still had hot flashes! When my periods disappeared, my hot flashes went too.
Mine have been lessening, since then (2009), but I still get them fairly regularly -- but thankfully, I've learned to deal with them pretty well; it always feels like my ears are so hot, they're about to melt or go up in flames, so I put cold water on my ears, and then fan them rapidly -- it helps immediately, since the ears are DIRECTLY connected to the hypothalamus, where the "thermostat" lives -- which is also why keeping your ears warm in the winter is a must, if you want to stay warm!
