Understanding your concern. As per your query you have persistent fatigue, hot flashes, mood swings and depression . Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query like changes in reproductive hormones and in your body's thermostat also known as hypothalamus, which becomes more sensitive to slight changes in body temperature. I would suggest you to consult gynecologist for proper examination . To confirm the cause of your hot flashes, your doctor may suggest blood tests. I would suggest you to consult psychiatrist for depression and mood swing problem , Doctor may prescribe anti depressants and rule out side effects of any medication. Doctor may also refer you to endocrinologist for hormonal changes .Doctor may prescribe hormonal therapy along with drugs like venlafaxine and clonidine . For now drink plenty of water , do light exercises like walking and eat healthy .
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes, Dr. Harry Maheshwari
