Symptom | What you can do |
Hot flashes and night sweats | Dress in layers so you can take off clothes if you get hot. |
Keep your home at a comfortable temperature. Avoid hot drinks, such as coffee and tea. | |
Put a cold, wet washcloth against your neck during hot flashes. | |
Quit smoking, if you smoke. (Smoking makes hot flashes worse.) If you are having trouble quitting, your doctor or nurse can help. | |
Vaginal dryness | Use a vaginal moisturizer a few times a week (sample brand names: Replens, K-Y SILK-E). |
Use a lubricant before sex (sample brand names: Astroglide, K-Y Jelly). | |
Sleep problems | Try to go to sleep and get up at the same time every day, even when you don't sleep well. |
Avoid caffeine in the afternoon, and limit alcohol. | |
Depression | Try to stay active. Exercise can help your mood. |
Seek support from other people going through menopause. |
