Q: I haven’t had hot flashes for five years, but now, at 60, I’m experiencing them again as I try to get off HRT. Why is this happening? Am I going through menopause again, or is this going to last forever?
A: The use and weaning off of hormone replacement therapy is comparable to dependence upon and withdrawal from strong drugs like pain medications, opiates, or alcohol after long periods of use. The stronger the formula or dose, and the longer the period of use, the more likely we are to see intense symptoms during withdrawal.
