I can't remember my last period -- it is a distant memory now (thank goodness!). I continued to have hot flashes for a while afterward -- maybe for two years. They have pretty much disappeared now, although if I am in a hot room or have overly exerted myself, they will return briefly. That said, my internal (or is it external?) thermometer still seems a bit kerfluey. I can be freezing cold one minute and very hot the next, and then freezing cold again. Hmm....maybe they haven't disappeared completely? At any rate, they certainly aren't the problem they used to be, that's for sure. I think every woman is unique in this regard, though. Fortunately, I haven't been ill, so I can't attest to the experience you've had with them vanishing during sickness. I do hope they lighten up for you soon!!! Hugs,
