Are Hot Flashes Due To Hormonal Imbalance?

I have just turned 40, i am getting hot flashes and like a heat rash over my chest and face. My period is 2 weeks late but over this last year they have been unusually irregular. I did have my bood tested which showed a hormone imbalance - does this mean im going through the change?

Endocrinologist 's  Response
Welcome and thank you for asking on HCM!
I read carefully your query.
Your symptoms are suggestive for a premenopause period.
Hot flashes and irregular menstrual cycle are characteristics of it.
I do not know what hormonal level have you done and what kind of hormonal imbalance do you have.
To give you a proper answer please attach all the exams you have done until now.
It will be a pleasure to help you further.
Kind regards,
Dr.Mirjeta
