HELP!!!..

I had a total hysterectomy over three years ago and have never taken HRT because I never had an bad symptoms. But recently, I've been overtaken by severe HOT FLASHES!!! I can't seem to control them and I'm constantly hot. I know we have trouble with medication because of our lack of absorption, so what should I take? I was thinking of Estrace or something over the counter first, that has Soy in it, instead of getting on a "real" HRT because I've heard they make you gain weight. Any suggestions? Just wondering what is best for people who malabsorb. Don't want to waste my money. Thanks everyone! On Fire in Florida :)
