The Dr. keeps raising the dosage and each time it cuts down on some of the hot flashes. I can't say I've found anything that works greatly though except for sitting in front of a fan and trying to relax. Talk to your Dr. there are plenty of things you could try. I also couldn't sleep for a while into my menopause (had a hysterectomy at 26) but with time my body adjusted. Not a single sleeping pill out there helped. Buy an Enya CD. I could never listen to it normally but it does wonders when you need to relax. I am on the patch. The Dr. keeps raising the dosage and each time it cuts down on some of the hot flashes.

Hot flashes are unbearable sometimes. Watch your diet and keep your weight down. Where light clothing when you can. Keep a fan handy. I am always in front of a fan.

Wear a light cotton shirt to bed and have a fan next to you. I have heard from friends that HRT helps them alot with the night sweats. Without HRT you body eventually will adjust to the hormone drop and the hot flashes will eventually disappear. I personally would stay away from HRT, because it is not natural and can cause ****** and uterus cancer. I'd rather deal with hot flashes than cancer.
