Calm Season

Symptom

Hot Flashes

Hot flashes are one of the most common vasomotor symptoms of perimenopause and menopause. Most people describe a rising warmth across the chest, neck, and face that lasts thirty seconds to a few minutes.

Common triggers

  • Warm rooms and heavy bedding
  • Spicy foods, alcohol, and caffeine
  • Stress and interrupted sleep

What tends to help

  • Layered natural-fiber clothing so you can cool down quickly
  • Paced breathing at onset (six slow breaths per minute)
  • Talk with your clinician about non-hormonal and hormonal options
An important note. Calm Season shares educational information, not medical advice. Talk with a qualified clinician about your individual situation before starting or changing any treatment.
