Some peri or menopausal women do perspire more than usual. But when a hot flash happens it is like its term, comes in a flash, no rhyme or reason. You can be sitting and relaxing and will start feeling the heat climbing in you.

When one is sweating profusely,
how to differentiate this sweating is caused by hot flushes that took place internally from within our body, due to hormonal change

Vs.

Because
Singapore weather is very hot at 38 degree Celsius, hence is natural to sweat ?
You should know how your body usually reacts? You should be able to tell that it's different in frequency and intensity.

From what members described so far..I think can differentiate both..we get red cheeks 😂 joke aside..I will use experience from Funz as guidance..

\"There were times when a couple of days before my menses start, I experience hot flashes followed by cold flashes at night. When hot flash happens, the heat seems to be radiating from inside of you, face and neck becomes flushed. \"

I have been taking TCM medication to fight against the menopause symptoms and it is quite effective and the medication is able to remove some of my liver fire so that I can talk to DH happily.

Some years ago, I remembered I have some arguments with DH and I cried on my bed, DH asked me what I wanted, I suddenly said I wanted to eat the prawn paste at Haidilao. Then DH said \" Let's go\", then we caught a cab to IMM and forgot all these arguments.[/quote]
😂 so cute la you.

Physical symptoms I can manage. But the mood swings really threw me off. The weepiness was so foreign to me. I will lie in bed at night then get angry and disappointed with DH over dunno what and DH is of course unaware and snoring away and I will feel so sad and start tearing. And I will be thinking you :siao: ah cry for what but I just cannot control the emotions.

Last year I started having mood. I am not one who is prone to mood swings, most who know me will say I am very even tempered and even a tad emotionless. So when I started getting snappish and frustrated to the point of tears for no apparent reason I got scared. Small things can set me off to the point where I want to hurl things across the room. And I was so restless. I realise that I am most likely heading into menopause so started reading up about how to manage menopause symptoms. I hardly take any supplements but since then, I am regularly taking EPO, magnesium supplements and multivits with ashwagandha and st john's wort.

I still have my monthly flow and like some mentioned, the cycle is shorter. 25days or less. There were times when a couple of days before my menses start, I experience hot flashes followed by cold flashes at night. When hot flash happens, the heat seems to be radiating from inside of you, face and neck becomes flushed. For me I am not the kind who perspire a lot so when that happens, I just become kind of clammy but there are those who say they sweat so much that their clothes are soaked. After the hot flash, I will suddenly start shivering feeling chilled to the bones. Both last only for a short while, not the whole night.
Looks like you almost got the hormone works! Be patient with yourself. You’re not at fault, it’s the hormones wrecking. Take care.

Pregnancy was so long time ago that I had forgotten how it felt. What is perimenopause?
Yup gotten a test kit already.
Go for a pregnancy test first and see what is the result. For perimenopause, our period may start to delay after a certain period of irregularity.

Hot flushes can incl feeling hot when others don’t, face feels hot flush & possibly reddish on the cheek. Mood swings - maybe those days u were upset with yr girls? Mood swings can come & go. S’times we don’t realize it but temperaments can change very quickly. Try primrose oil or go for TCM acupuncture to stabilize the hormonal swings. I had tried abt 2 decades ago at Tong Chai.

Maybe not feeling too well? My dd has fallen sick. I don't remember when was last time I see her sick. We did test it was negative..I think we better do it again.
Ya, mine also negative. So it’s the common flu bug, but seems stronger than my Covid experience. Started when I kept coughing & felt throat raspy, so I thot it’s Covid again. Tested but negative & had been coughing quite roughly since. Had slight fever for 2-3 days & bodyaches.
