Acupuncture is helpful with hot flushe in patients

Hot flushes are common adverse effects of antiestrogen hormone treatment in conventional breast cancer care. Venlafaxine (Effexor), the therapy of choice for these symptoms, has numerous adverse effects. Recent studies suggest acupuncture may be effective in reducing vasomotor symptoms in menopausal women.
In addition, acupuncture was found to have  additional benefit of increased sex drive in some women, and most reported an improvement in their energy, clarity of thought, and sense of well-being.
