I recently stopped using hormone replacement and now get an intense feeling of anxiety/panic right before the hot flash and/or night sweats which also wake me up. I am going back on hormone replacement which will alleviate this problem. When I had my original hot flashes years ago, I did not experience this anxiety.Replied by Diana (Grand Junction, Co) on 03/21/2010
Google what magnesium does and see if this resonates with you. Also check out Lugol's Iodine
Good luck Diana

Try Estroven. You can purchase it at Cosco or Trader Joes. You must take one pill every day and do not skip a day. I have now been taking it for 30 days and my Hot flashes are down 95%. I am not kidding you. I use to " go off " multipe times during the day and at least 6-7 times at night. So I have not had much sleep in the last year.
I gave my sister a pack, she has been on it for 10-12 days now and her flashes have decreased 60%.
Remember you cannot miss a day, it's really important to keep it in your system.
Good Luck, KAREN
