I am 10 yrs postpartum and experiencing a terrible fogginess. I have
kiddingly told my DH to put a sign on me stating where to return me if found
without my mind !!! I think it is hormonally related because I am
experiencing menopause--now 13 months since my last period. I am having hot
flashes and just started the night sweats. I am trying to use soy and avoid
ERT but am now reading and trying to decide on natural hormone replacement
treatment.
I had horrible hot flashes post partum also.
