"My 1st dose was on the evening of 3/7/24. I woke up at 6:30 am. The hot flashes and night sweats are gone, day and night! I haven’t slept through the night in 4 years. I did have some side effects: nausea, headache, and insomnia. The nausea has subsided but the insomnia and headache are a problem. I’m now only sleeping a few hours a day if that. A few nights I didn’t sleep at all. I’m going to skip tonight's dose and try taking it in the morning. I hope the lack of sleep is why I still have a headache. I really need this to work. I’ve tried so many off-label drugs in the last 4 years that did not help. If this doesn’t work, I don’t know what I’ll do. My life has been a nightmare for the last 4 years when my last doctor took my HRT away because of my age (62). This is why I need this Veozah to work so badly! I’m hoping these 2 side effects will go away soon."

"I had a TAH back in 2012. At the time, I was 48. Just recently, I was experiencing being very hot or very cold at the same time. I had no idea what this was. I was speaking with my sister, who stated, 'You’re having hot flashes.' Because I was feeling extremely exhausted, I noticed that the Veozah commercials were always popping up. I questioned my hot flashes due to me having a birthday earlier this month. I turned 60, so I finally made the call to my gynecologist for an appointment. I explained my symptoms in detail. My labs were drawn the next day. I had a follow-up phone call to discuss my lab results. I was prescribed Veozah. The next morning, I started taking one 45mg tablet of Veozah. My hot flashes/cold flashes turned into having very mild flashes. By day two of taking Veozah, my hot flashes turned into NO FLASHES. I have no side effects. The pill is very small, so the ease of starting this regimen of Veozah is definitely LIFE CHANGING!!!! Thank you, Veozah"

"Within the first few days of taking this, my hot flashes stopped. I have not touched my bedside fan ever since I started this medication. I only noticed my blood pressure was higher than normal, but it may not be due to the medication."

"Started Veozah right before the winter months and it has been working great until now. (SPRING) No side effects that I can tell at all. Hot flashes are starting back during the day and night. I'm afraid to stop it for fear of really suffering but not sure it's worth continuing to put into my body."

"Started it 3 weeks ago after experiencing nighttime hot flashes (7 pm-5 am) for months. Unable to take HRT but Dr. recommended it as an HRT alternative. So far it's been life-changing! All hot flashes disappeared after 4 nights and have rediscovered a good night's sleep. Have experienced no side effects to this point. Still early but can't recommend it enough right now!"

"Back in July of 2012, I had a TAH. I was 48 years old. After I started HRT, I found it to be effective, and my hot flashes became far and few. One night, I was having a conversation with my younger sister, explaining my symptoms. Immediately she said, 'Sissy, you’re having hot flashes.' And being that everything was out of the playground, I said, 'No way.' Within the next couple of days, I called my gynecologist's office to ask if I could have hot flashes at my age, even given the fact that I had a TAH. I was told to make an appointment to see the doctor, to discuss my symptoms and have labs drawn to check my TSH and LFT levels. The next day, I checked for my lab results and followed up with a phone call with the RN of my gynecologist's office to discuss my results. That day, a prescription of Veozah was sent to my local pharmacy. I started Veozah the next morning. That day, I had a slight sensation of a hot flash; the second day, I went to having NO flash. So far, I’ve not had any side effects! Thank you, Astellas Pharma."

"It works great for hot flashes and night sweats, but I have sciatica and it made my tailbone hurt like no other pain ever!!! So I guess back pain is my side effect."

"Nausea and random stomach pain. I also still get a bit hot at night and in the afternoon."

"Within the first week of taking Veozah, I thought I found the miracle pill! My hot flashes had just about all stopped. I was very satisfied with the results. However, after taking it for about 3 and a half months, things changed for me. The night sweats became increasingly worse and I started feeling dizzy and off balance. So, needless to say, I have stopped taking it. I am very disappointed that it did not continue to work for me, and that I had that reaction to it."
