What about head and face sweating? I have thought of trying botox or anything other than meds.

I know that spinal cord injuries can cause sweating and I'm wondering if… read more

I am born and always lived in Florida so humidity and heat have always been in my world.
I do not have excessive tension, ptsd or any of the other things mentioned here that might contribute to it.
I find it so sad so many of us suffer from this condition and there is no real solution in sight.… read more
My daughter suggested this to me so I approached my doctor. I thought that at 71 I was too old for HRT, however my doctor has agreed to it once my blood pressure settles down. Fingers crossed.

In regards to the Botox. I had this done first but the results only lasted for one month and the NHS only offer one treatment a year so wasn’t any good for me sadly.
I feel that I have never come out of the menopause, however I started on antidepressants around what should have been close to the end of the menopause and wonder if this might be responsible for the continued symptoms
I have the same issue
