    I have gone on a mild anti-depressant called Zoloft for my hot flushes and mood swings!  Only early days, so not really working yet!  But they say it is effective!  I have also had a blood test to see if I have any estrogen.  My dr said if there is some estrogen I still have a chance of getting my cycles back, but if there is no estrogen then my chances are less likely!  I kind of just want to know so I can learn to deal with this at the age of 36.
