Prempro and hot flashes

I am 54 and Prempro has been the most wonderful thing that has happened to me. I can sleep through the night, although I do wake up at least once to pee, No more hot flashes, my MOOD is so much better, I am happy. NO more PMS. I still get a period every few months and it lasts for about two weeks but the second week is light. My sex drive is not so good but I have been married for 30 years so I think that's just it. Nothing a studly 40ish manly man couldn't cure. The only BAD thing is weight gain. I could eat a horse on a daily basis. Food is my new sex toy. i have gained 10 pounds in 5 months. I have no will power. So I am doing a 1/2 pill now and that seems to be working. Although now I have an occasional hot flash if I eat chocolate or pasta but other then that I feel great!******
