Apologies if you've seen all this before, but thought I would share a couple of the tips I used to get me through. My menopause was fast-forwarded due to chemo, and consequently I wasn't able to have HRT

Don't sleep on a memory foam mattress or pillow. Hot, hot, hot!
Keep a damp flannel/cloth nearby. Apply to back of neck and/or wrists when having a hot flush. Works wonders
Old fashioned fans (no battery!) Are essential. Kerp one in each bag you have and in every room!
It is perfectly acceptable to want to scream/cry/murder someone

Finally, it will eventually pass!
