Hot flashes

Radiation treatment for prostate cancer

Radiation/seeds in 2015; 1 year of Eligard finished 2016. Night sweats tapered off by 2020 hot flashes, 2/3 each night, more during the day continued. Now in 2023 1 in 10 hot flashes have sweating again, 7 years
after stopping Eligard. Anybody experience the restart of sweats? Not as bad as while receiving Eligard shots. Best medicine to control that is not HRT?
