Endocrinologist 's  Response
Hello,
I can understand your concern.
As an overdosage of levothyroxine is ruled out, the cause of hot flushes should be the hormonal changes that occur during peri menopause and menopause period. The frequency and duration of the symptoms is indvidual
I would suggest to see a gynecologist or endocrinologist so they can suggest treatment to ease the symptoms and prevent complications of the low estrogen in the future.
