Hot flushes at night...how do you cope? (Peri menapausal)

[Overseasmom100]

Baking....red hot...quilt is on then off!! Driving me crazy. Not in the day though thank goodness.

Any suggestions??

I find if I keep myself marginally colder than is comfortable it reduces the flushes a lot. Also avoiding alcohol (sad face).

HRT! Do yourself a favour! Why suffer when you don't have to?

I started sea swimming and I haven't had as many heat fuelled nights since. My legs are still cold from being in today at lunchtime .

Yep, sage. I took the Victoria health ones. Sage complex. Took about a month to kick in but worked wonders.

Thanks for thread and tips
Was feeling all kinds of weird .
Then these threads make me realise all normal and there are solutions....

Last night wasnt too bad...woke up 3 times threw quilt in off etc... am in ASDA going to see what sage tablets they have give them.ago

I was chilly last night, so wrapped myself in an extra duvet, put my ear plugs in and slept deeply until 6.30. I'm 53.

HRT folks.

Yep HRT, replace that falling oestrogen, that's what's making your thermostat stop working.

I dont think I could stand the periods!!!
I only heat up at night if it were all day long I would consider

@Trewser I also slept like the proverbial log, ear plugs in. I am 53.

Sage tablets, no HRT.

Really not against HRT and would take it asap if I had the need but other stuff works for other people.

Yes, whatever works!

A fan with a remote control. It is awesome
