Hi, I m 56 been thru menapause and have suffered with hot flashes and night sweats for over 10 years. Recently I ve noticed that ONCE a month its like I have a surge and I start sweating really bad (during the day) and then after about a week it settles way down almost stopping. What is this and is it normal.Thank you.

Hello,

This is a normal change in postmenopausal women due to the hormonal changes in the body. You can increase your fluid intake and stay calm during these days to help with the symptoms.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Rakhi Tayal, OBGYN
