I have Stage 1A grade 1 endometrial cancer

Hello all, so my 6th week post op appointment with my onco just done last week and since i cant have any hormone pill as i am estrogen receptor positive, he gave me paxil to treat menopausal symptoms as i am having hor flashes esp at night time. I havent taken this drug as i am concerned about the side effects. Has anyone in the group been prescribed with the same pill? Right now i am taking my calcium to prevent osteoporosis and CoQ10 for heart health. He further advised if i want to try the black cohost instead of taking the paxil. Any thoughts on this? Thanks again

Hello Jessy. You were prescribed Paxil for menopausal symptoms?
I was given that to help me sleep as my sleeping got really bad after my hysterectomy early on February.
The NP told me that this pill is used for depression too 😞
It didn’t do too good on me. I would get dizzy and I went back to taking melatonin.
I have also been recommended taking cohost because I get night sweats. But I heard it’s a few pills per day in order to work.
I have to tell you that you encourage me to take calcium. I will start today. Thank you 🤗
I will keep you in my prayers. Keep in touch if you don't mind. We were diagnosed the same month this year with the same stage cancer. Take care
