ADT: How long until I can expect the hot flushes to kick in?

I was fortunate to have minimal occurrences of modest hot flashes while on ADT treatment.

I began Orgovyx in Feb 2023, and walked almost daily in central PA (read "cold") and my hot flashes would occur during my walk. I would think "wow, I am warm"; followed by "yo, dummy, that's a hot flash".
So off went a jacket, or sweatshirt or knit cap (or all of the above) and I would be walking in pretty cold temps with relatively few clothes. And laughing at myself.
Best wishes for mild side effects.

@michaelcharles I live in South Florida, so I’d have to look long and hard for a coat and knit cap! haha
I think I may have had one or two, but I’m sure I’ll know it when it hits!
Thanks for the reply. Sending prayers for you - keep winning!
