Gp won't increase sandrena and says my symptoms may be from too much estrogen. Is that likely?

Of course, any kind of hormonal imbalance will result in hot flashes. Low progesterone (known as estrogen dominance in the rest of the World) causes hot flashes. Symptoms of low progesterone and low estrogen are very similar.

Thanks AngelaH. So how do I figure out which is causing my issues? Is it trial and error?

It is trial and error.
One of the signs of low progesterone is heavier than usual periods. Low estrogen is lighter than usual periods.
