I wish that was true for me. Had Lupron for 7 years and the hot flash intensity did reduce over time, for a while, because I was getting depo-provera shots every three months . After starting Orgovyx Two years ago, I have really had some major hot flash problems. First five months I had almost no hot flashes then they came on hard. I couldn’t take it any longer and had to get a depo-provera shot about a month ago to try to get them to be milder and it worked. Nowadays I only get one or two a day that actually soak my hair, The rest are somewhat mild. Between a fan and my Wave 2 device, they don’t last too long.
The fan you pictured is real nice, I have one and it works well to cool off my face and head. It’s easy to carry around.
The one in the picture below it’s a lot stronger and completely variable speed.. The battery lasts a long time and it clips on the very thick material or sits just flat as it shows. I always have it clipped next to my bed to cool me off as a hot flash comes on. Got it on Amazon. It’s my second one the first one and only lasted about five years.
