How To Cope With Hot Flashes
8. Medical Hypnosis

According to a study from Baylor University, medical hypnosis may be able to treat hot flashes. The study was performed on twenty-six breast cancer survivors with severe hot flashes due to early-induced menopause from various cancer treatments. Results showed that five sessions of hypnotherapy resulted in a sixty-eight percent decrease of hot flashes. The participants also reported sleeping better at night and experiencing less anxiety. Research shows that medical hypnosis may work just as well for women with natural menopause.
7. Weight Loss

A 2010 study published in the Archives of Internal Medicine revealed that losing weight could help reduce or eliminate hot flashes. The study tested two hundred and twenty-six overweight or obese women around the age of fifty-three. The women were put on a weight loss program. Results showed that each woman experienced a reduction of hot flashes by about a third for every eleven pounds of weight lost. Results went on to show that the more weight a woman lost, the greater the reduction of hot flashes.
