Hi Gill67, when I started peri menopause at 38 I had drenching sweating, only on movement, never had night sweats or what is described as a typical hot flush, never thought at that time is was peri related because I developed anxiety at the same time, took prozac which caused more sweating, I eventually realised I was probably early peri and had these weird drenching sweats for 5 years, it was always my head it was like a bucket of water had been thrown over me, my hair would be dripping with it, very embarrassing when at work, it wasn't until I was put on hrt at 43 that the sweats went away, I've been lucky that hrt has completely controlled my sweating, not so lucky with the other million symptoms I get, hopefully the higher dose will help control it, I've never come across anyone else either who suffered this type of sweating in peri x
