I've been on this medication for 1month I stop having hot flashes 2 weeks in. Im no longer bloated, however after 3months of no cycle, my cycle started again and last for 10days which is a bummer but other than that I feel fantastic. I had hair loss and thinning because of low estrogen levels and now my thinning hair spots are growing back.

Started this about 3 1/2 weeks ago. No hot flashes in the day or night which is awesome and no bad mood swings, but just noticed I have gained 4 pounds, NOT GOOD. Go to the gym and workout so this shouldn't be happening. Not sure if I need lower dose or to just stop taking it. A bit frustrating.
