Hot flushes as soon as I wake
« on: April 22, 2024, 07:04:14 AM »

My hot flushes have  become sweaty ones whereas before I just had this extreme heat rising through me.
I get hot in the night but also as soon as I wake up. Is this normal?
I haven't had a period for 3 months and not on hrt.
Thanks.

It was normal for me. I started with the hot feeling then that became hot and sweaty on waking and then during the night before finally becoming hot sweats throughout the day. I did find my hot flushes/sweats stopped leading up to a period. The first time that happened I naively thought I was through it and out the other side of meno then the period arrived and I had to start counting the months again.

Hia,

Normal,

Your normal estrogen levels dip at night and early morning.
So these are the times you have lower estrogen, causing temp fluctuation and heat regulation issues.
