Breastfeeding/postpartum/peri or something else?

I currently am 9 weeks PP and am breastfeeding with one supplemental bottle of formula a day.

I am absolutely boiling hot all the time. Like sweat running down my back hot (sorry tmi). I had night sweats postpartum with my first but this is 24 hours a day! I’ve also got horrendous headaches. What on earth is this? I have hypothyroidism which is medicated and my levels have been checked twice since birth.

Did anyone else experience this while breastfeeding (was unable to breastfeed my first)? Or could it be peri?

Sweating is hormones and should stop soon, but if you're worried it's something else better to be safe than sorry. I stank for the first 2 months, not helped by having a late spring baby! Headaches: might be worth getting checked if you're sure it's not sleep deprivation or dehydration
