I think this is common. Mine passed eventually. I believe the drugs upscuttle your hormone balance for a while. Best wishes x

If you’re post menopausal I think that the removal of the ovaries takes away any slight remaining oestrogen the ovaries may have been secreting and triggers hot sweats. I know I had the joy of a second lot of menopause symptoms post surgery and chemo. I’m sure it will improve for you. Take care and stay safe ❤️xx Jane
