MENOPAUSE

Can anyone suggest a safe and normal route to conquering hot flashes and all the delightful things associated with Menopause? I have been on HRT from my doctor for over a year and although it really helps I am becoming nervous about all the side effects that's all over the news.  I will be talking to my doctor about alternatives, but I thought I would throw it out there to see what's working for bypass patients especially with the absorption problems we can have. So I hope to hear back with some good tips.

Thanks

What type of hormones are you using? I have been reading alot lately about the use of bioidentical type of hormone.
Not there yet, but hooe you get some good info.
