Hot Flashes
I am 71 years old and still experiencing hot flashes. Does anyone have any ideas about relieving them? Tried to go back on hormones but my doctor says no, because of my age.

@airey2 – Good morning and welcome to Connect. Have you considered drinking turmeric chai green tea? It's a double whammy as it's green and has added benefits for reducing inflammation?
No, I have not tried that flavor of tea. I have not seen it in stores.
ALso I've found out the hard way that turmeric and endometriosis don't mix. I had a ham sandwich once with mustard (which has turmeric), and got very sick.
Later I researched turmeric on WebMD and it said not to take turmeric if you have hormone sensitive diseases like endometriosis. I don't know why it is not good for endometriosis, but I learned the hard way.
