Do ALL symptoms cease when you are post-meno or do you just get used to being a grumpy old woman?

Assume flushes etc stop but wondering if the fatigue mood swings etc continue - and you just become used to it as a part of ageing ?

There is no one answer to this. My mum still had flushes in her 70s and 80s. Evidently 25% of women have flushes and similar for 10+ years. Some symptoms can disappear but longer term problems like osteoporosis, heart disease and bladder / vaginal problems are caused by low/no oestrogen and without supplementation ( sometimes only topical for bladder/ vaginal) they won't improve.

Low moods can be helped a lot by exercise and diet. Many women become more aggressive/ grumpier because their testosterone levels are higher than their oestrogen levels.

I know it seems as if it will never end, but it does. The energy levels might take a couple of years.
