This source says if your hot flashes started before you stopped menstruating (me), they can go on for 9 or 10 years. I'm in year 6 or 7 of hot flashes myself. I get them at least once an hour 24/7. It's miserable. But yes, my mental stability is SO much better now.
Omg. 9-10 years! Mine thankfully stopped in about two years. Mostly it stopped when I officially entered menopause (12 months after last period). Omg you have yours every hour! It’s insane

But my skin got drier, hair thinner and skin turn duller after menopause. Bottom line I started aging. Before menopause I showed very few signs of aging
