Symptom · perimenopause

Hot flashes. Naturally, in weeks.

That wave of heat that arrives without warning. Night sweats that soak your sheets. There's a reason, and there's a reversible pattern.

What's happening

Your body, decoded.

What it feels like

Wave of heat, then chill.

Sudden flush rising from the chest. Skin red. Then the cold sweat. Then drained for an hour after.

Why it's happening

Hypothalamic misfiring.

Your internal thermostat (hypothalamus) becomes hypersensitive as estrogen drops. Tiny temperature shifts trigger giant responses.

What we do about it

Cooling + estrogen support.

Hot flash frequency typically drops 60-80% within 8 weeks on the protocol. No HRT required (HRT optional).
