What can be done about depression in perimenopause?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Two thoughts.: Use of an ssri can help lift mood (treat depression) and treat hot flashes. There are a number of studies about use of Lexapro (escitalopram) to lessen hot flashes. Second consider talking therapy in addition.
