Poor thang!
I can't offer any tips because I've yet to go thru menopause. It's there hovering on my horizon though (I turn 35 in December). I'm on Effexor and can say that I've heard of it being used for Menopause, small dosages, more & more often. Hang in there, someone in Psycho-Bab will have more information than me.

KDi in Texas> My dr. put me on 37.5 xr mg of effexor once a day for menopause. But, after reading so many of the side effects it looks like menopause on a "platter".I seem to had most of the SE without the medication. This is my 8th day of taking it. I have a loss of appeitie and I feel jittery. The hot flashes seem worse then ever! I was thrusted into menopause over night due to my surgery (hysterectomy)This is a very scary and confusing time in my life right now.Has any one taken this for menopause or does anyone have any comments? I would greatly appreciate it! Has any one got good results using it for menopause??? waaaaaaaaa..I am soooooo confused!
