    I heard yesterday that if you need to stop your HRT treatments for a surgery you are going to have beware of hot flashes that result from going off HRT. It lasts as long as the time you are off hormones. Your doctor will likely advise you to stop two weeks before and for two weeks after. Hot flashes for a minimum of four weeks. Anyone hear about this?
