I had surgical menopause at the age of 27. I somehow managed to survive over 20 years of hot flashes with sporatic HRT. My flashes stopped 5 years ago but returned a month ago with a vengence. I feel like I did immediately after the surgery, it is almost impossible. I was diagnosed with a solid mass on my adrenal gland two years ago and I was tested. Everything came out OK. I had to go to my PCP today and he said that I need to have the adrenal glands tested again. I am feeling very discouraged and the emotional roller coaster I am on with the flashes isn't helping.
Is it common for flashes to go away and return?
