Avatar f tn Hi again, A recent research review, published by The Cochrane Collaboration, listed numerous non-hormonal therapies--medications and complementary type interventions that do not appear to alter a woman's hormonal state-- that can help manage hot flushes. (Several "holistic" remedies such as black cohosh and phytoestrogens do not qualify as non-hormonal because they might alter a woman's hormonal balance.
Avatar n tn Hi, It is good that you cut down your alcohol and visited your doctor. A hot flush is a sudden feeling of warmth and often a breakout of sweating usually confined to the upper half of the body, neck, face and head.

Avatar m tn Each time I go out in the cold air and come back into my room, I feel a hot flush come on for a few minutes. I sort of go hot and then slightly sweat. It has worn off now and I am not flushing at the moment or sweating. does what I said sound like a hot flush? I do not have any fever, my body temp is normal. The thing is it makes me feel even more nervous when it happens, because my fear is to do with waiting for an std test and I keep wondering if it is the std doing it or just the anxiety.

Avatar f tn I am a 67 year old woman and started having hot flushes in my forties in the last 12 months they have become increasingly worse.

My doctor does not seem interested is there anything I can take?
8466308 tn?1407955973 My midwife told me yesterday it was normal to get hot flushes when pregnant. Oh my gosh i hate them they dont last long, maybe a minite but there horrible :( anybody else get them? Peace & Love to you all!
Avatar f tn Best not to read it really. Nevertheless, as you brought up hot flushes, I thought I would look and see if they are mentioned. It does say that more than 1 in 10 users could experience flushing. It also mentions so many others, that I myself have never experienced. As your doctor says, however, that it could decrease the intensity of hot flushes, that is a good thing. I did find that Effexor certainly controls my anxiety, depression and panics, so it is great for that. See how you go.
1410020 tn?1322299265 Hi I am 42 had cancer when I was 38 after treatment got menopause symptoms for 8 months then got my period back. I have now missed a period and started getting hot flushes and sweats. I plan on going to my doctor to get a blood test done to see if it is a hormone problem and if this is the start of the end of my period. When I had the 8 months of menopause symptoms I started taking a dissolvable cube called a trost ( not spelt right) which dissolved into the gum.

Avatar f tn I seem to get strong hot flashes early in the afternoon and I stay hot until early evening. It isn't a flash, it's a constant thing. Does anyone have anything similar to this or any advise? It's kind of embarrassing at work. Thank you!
1720588 tn?1309457579 normally i get them if i run out of the meds that im on but this time its different because i havent ran out of my meds and im getti8ng the hot and cold flashes. normally the pattern is i get cold flashes all day long i turn my heater up to 78 degrees and im still cold. than at night when i go to bed its like every hour im having hot flashes than like 30 min utes later it turns to cold flashes.
Avatar f tn Hot flashes seem to be caused by extremes of the hormone levels--particularly estrogen. When estrogen levels are low, as in menopause, women experience hot flushes and when the levels are high as in pregnancy women have hot flushes.

Avatar n tn I just stopped taking Lipotox because I had the same side effects as you did, expecially anxiety attacks and hot flushes. Besides my thyroid problem I also had Graves but thank God my eye is a lot better now. Thanks for your comments.
Avatar f tn Hi there, I am tapering down from methadone, was at 130mgs two years ago, and am currently at 41mgs, now tapering 2mgs/ week. I know this is a low and slow taper but still I am not feeling so great. I keep getting hot flashes, nausea and going hot and cold, it's uncomfortable. My methadone doctor suggested clonidine for these symptoms, I know some of you have tried it and I was wondering if it helps much, and is it worth even taking? Thanks for your responses...
