What Causes Sudden Sensation Of Hot Flashes In The Body?

I have been having what I thought was hot flashes, I was told I should not be having hot flashes, because I had a total hysterectomy in 2008. So my doctor is having my blood tested for Thyroid problems. I am waiting for results. Is it possible to have hot flashes, if you are having thyroid problems?

hot flushes can be due to hyperthyroidism also but it can also occur after hysterectomy provided your ovaries are not removed during operation.... please consult your operating doctor whether ovaries were removed or not also doing a TFT would be right option... thankyou
