 Hi,
I am a newbie to the site. My thing is I am 51 still have a period every month. (Heavy one's ) I am not sure if hot flashes are the same as Flushing. My face gets super hot and  cheeks turn red. Sometimes it last for a few minutes other times my cheeks stay red for an hour or so? I also read on one of the post about a chalky discharge which is so bad you have to wear a panty liner, almost like you feel like you peed yourself. I have been getting that for about 3 months now.
 Now my periods have such a strong old blood smell I almost hate it because I can still smell it with my pants up . Does anyone have that problem or is it something I need to see a doctor about? I live in a rural area and we don't have many doctor. I would have to travel over an hour and face to face this is hard to ask.(especially a male doctor)
Any help would be appreciated

Hi 07

Usually hot flushes affect whole body... but the ones you are having could be the beginning of small ones?

Chalky discharge could be a small yeast infection or another vaginal condition- bacterial vaginosis? Or it could be you are just making lots of estrogen still. Could you try asking for female doc at GP's? Also the chemist will have stuff otc that may be able to help you with that too. Just got to be brave  ...

Alternatively you could try getting a herbal anti fungal on line from amazon or in local health shop? A short blast of that may clear it up and be no harm to do. Sporegone is a good one- by Specialist supplements. Or just get some marigold in tincture.

The strong smell in the period suggests you may need to do a good cleanse. All kinds of those suggested on line. I did have this once myself- all cleared up with a gentle liver cleanse and herbs for liver and colon cleansing. Couple all that with a super healthy diet for a few weeks.

Hope that helps.
