I Have Been Having Several Hot Flashes And Either Cold Or Sweating
I have been having several hot flashes and either cold or sweating. My thyroid has been checked several times during the past 12 months and my test results are fine according to the medication I am on. I had a hysterectomy 13 years ago and have been told it s not menopause. Any suggestions?

These symptoms are most probably due to hysterectomy only. Still get a thyroid function test and an abdominal ultrasound to rule out ovarian and adrenal pathology, which may cause similar symptoms. Consult your gynecologist for the same. I usually prescribe tibolone drug but let your doctor decide according to your physical particulars. Take care and all the best.
