Psych Meds relieving Hot Flashes?

Posted by susan C on October 26, 2002, at 13:21:34

Hello all and sundry Menopausers
(although I dont understand why it is called 'pause' cause it has STOPPED...) On my list of things to attack to help my mental health is a full night of restful sleep. Not waking up 5 to 10 times every night would, it seems to me, contribute greatly to this mental health goal.
I have tried dietary, OTC, HRT, Estrogens and Progesterone combinations over the last three years or more. My last trial was a pure estrogen patch.
I am now to the bottom of the list, a small group of studies that have shown Effexor and Neurontin help eliminate them.
My GYN said she doesnt use those meds and to talk to the Pdoc, the Pdoc said, talk to the GYN...so, therefore: I am going to my GP.
I am collecting information.
Is there anyone here who has had results using one or the other of these medications to stop hotflashes?
Thanks,
aging mouse
