possible premature menopause.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for the query,
If you are experiencing hot flushing at the age of 41 , then there are chances of you being in a stage of prematur menopause. To rule the same out , please get a hormonal profile done with FSH , LH and AMH levels . A high FSH &LH levels and low AMH shall confirm the diagnosis and then you may be supplemented with hormonal supplementation if required to control yoru symptoms.
