This is my 4th day on Effexor, 75mg. I am not depressed, but had a hysterectomy when I was 24 and have really bad hot flashes from it. I was on Celexa for the hot flashes, but it stopped working so I was switched to Effexor. I was wondering if anyone else is taking it for his reason?

I Had a hysterectomy at age 42 and was also put on effexor 37.5 mg once a day for the hot flashes and depression and a few other unfavorable menopausal symptoms!!!!!!! It's only been my fifth day so it's still early to know at this point. However, a cousin of mine takes it for hot flashes and she said it was a miracle and she is very happy as to the results!!Good luck ans let me know...:)
