Are You Suffering from Hot Flashes?

Are you finding yourself increasingly suffering from hot flashes? Does your face get red and flushed? Do you sweat suddenly and profusely for no apparent reason? If so, then there is a very good chance that you are entering the menopause. Hot flashes are the most common symptom of menopause with almost 70% of perimenopausal women and almost all menopausal women experience them.

It is not clear what exactly causes hot flashes, but there are strong indications that it is linked to changes in circulation causing blood vessels near the skin to dilate. Hot flashes are often accompanied by night sweats making it difficult and/or uncomfortable to sleep.

How Long Will Hot Flashes Last?

There is no set time frame when a woman is going to experience hot flashes. Some women only have them for a short period in the early stages of menopause while other women will experience them for the duration of their menopause. It is even possible for them to last for the remainder of the woman’s life. However, the severity of these hot flashes usually lessen over time.

Can You Prevent Hot Flashes?

Hot flashes are just one of those things that cannot really be avoided during the menopause, but there are a number of things you could try to lessen them. Some of the things that have been known to act as a trigger for hot flashes include stress, caffeine, alcohol, tight or restrictive clothing, overheating and smoking. It is a good idea to make some lifestyle changes to eliminate these triggers and to wear loose clothing made from natural materials like cotton.

Are you experiencing Night Sweats?

Do you wake up or does your husband wake you up and you find you have drenched the sheets? Your sleep is disrupted and can be difficult getting back to sleep. The continued night sweats over time can lead to chronic sleep deprivation.

Can the symptoms of night sweats be part of going thru the menopausal process or does it point to hormone imbalance during a major life change where women are going from a reproductive cycle to non-child bearing status?

What other signs in addition to Night Sweats are indicators of low hormone levels and/ or hormonal imbalances between the hormones. The number 1 complaint is weight gain that is unexplained and usually accumulates around the torso and is found to be very resistant to diet and exercise. Another complaint is memory issues, feeling like you are in a mental fog with short term memory loss and difficulty with multitasking at work and at home. A familiar complaint is mood swings for no reason you can identify that can be severe with episodes that leave you feeling depressed with low self-image. Patients also state a feeling of low self-esteem, reduced motivation; stamina and interest in the world around you often with day-long fatigue despite feeling they have gotten enough sleep.

To find the cause of your night sweats, a complimentary Female Hormone Replacement initial consultation is offered at our Natural Hormone Replacement Clinics of Colorado office that includes a thorough past, present and family medical history. Genetics, past and present nutritional status and certain life experiences may also play a contributory role in finding a way back to health.

These common symptoms of Premenstrual Syndrome (PMS) and pre, peri or postmenopause are commonly associated with declining female hormones (estrogen, testosterone and progesterone) and are often misdiagnosed and treated as individual symptoms, e.g. depression is often treated by doctors with an anti-depressant rather than first checking for hormone levels. Changes in testosterone, estrogen and Progesterone levels play an intricate role in these symptoms and are magnified with age. If you have all or some of these symptoms, your exact hormone levels should be checked as imbalances can affect functions of many organs and organ systems from your skin your heart, brain and even your eyes.

What Menopause Testing Do I Need?

The most common way to test for hormone levels is either with blood serum, saliva or Urine. Each one has benefits over the other. The most common is blood serum, but Blood serum testing is slowly getting replaced by Saliva Testing (no needles). Our office prefers saliva testing as we can not only test for 11 hormones but also see how your body is reacting to your environment over a 15 hour period. You can’t do it with blood serum testing. Urine testing is only used for special circumstances.

No matter which test is used, a short time frame of 4-5 days during the second half of your cycle reveals a best case scenario for estrogen and progesterone levels. If done during any other time frame, levels will look abnormally low resulting in over dosing.

Menopause Treatment

Are you suffering from hot flashes, unexplained mood swings, night sweats and anxiety? Do you have concerns that you might be entering into the menopause? Do not worry – you are not alone! The menopause is something that affects all women as they get older and it can be a difficult time thanks to the myriad of changes that are going on in the body. The good news is that the unpleasant side effects of ‘the change’ can be alleviated with the help of female hormone replacement therapy.

What is the Menopause?

As we age, our ovaries stop releasing eggs and start to produce less estrogen because we are no longer in the ‘child bearing’ phase of our lives. Over time women will cease menstruation – this happens gradually and is known as the menopause. Once you have had no menstrual period for a year you will be considered postmenopausal. The menopause generally occurs around the age of 50.

The Symptoms of Menopause

There are many symptoms that are related to the menopause. Some of these are simply unpleasant and last for only a short time while others are more long term and can be a little more serious. Some common symptoms include, but are not limited to :

mood swings
hot flashes
night sweats
insomnia
hair loss
osteoporosis
weight gain
loss of sex drive

How Could Female Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) Help?

Female hormone replacement therapy can help to relieve most of the symptoms women experience during the menopause. We use bioidentical hormones to replace those that are deficient including progesterone and estrogen. This will help to improve your quality of life and allow you to start feeling like yourself again. Female ormone replacement therapy can also help to prevent more serious effects of the menopause such as osteoporosis.
