5 weeks post treatment!

Wow you are doing great! ️ the hof flushes happened to me and I am well past menopause x but they have stopped! I am 8 weeks post treatment and finally feel more me - damage in different areas to you!  Take the time to repair well and have time for you x

Hot not hof ! 

Thank you!!! I’m not very patient and just want to go back to normal but Rome wasn’t built in a day!! Glad the hot flushes will pass that’s one less thing!!! X

Hello Bosshogg

I am really pleased that you are out the other side and things have improved.  If your loo symptoms don't improve I would get checked out to make sure that you don't have a urine infection which are apparently very common during and after radiotherapy.

I was way past the menopause when I had treatment so that was one side effect I didn't have, fortunately but there are quite a few ladies on here in your age group, I am hoping they pick up on your post and help.

Good luck with the pink plastic, apparently silicone ones are far more comfortable and easy to use!

Lovely to hear you're on the mend Bosshogg .  I'm 49 and was already taking HRT before I started my treatment so can't offer any advice on the hot flushes/hot sweats I'm afraid.  However, I do think the treatment can trigger menopause.

Thank you, it’s nice to know others have been through the same as me! Did your side effects come and go or did they just fade away? 

Hi Bosshogg 

Menopause/HRT side effects or general post treatment side effects?
