Any advice on night sweats

Hi Photodlh, did you doctor give any insight as to what's causing your night sweats and mood swings?

No he did not..I did not even think of asking that, I guess I should.
Thanks

I think that would be a good idea for you, as I think that getting more insight will give you peace of mind. Let me know how it goes for you. I am here for you.

i am really interested to know if u found anything new. i been having the symptoms for 2 years really bad. a few years before that i got tested and they told me the same thing . now i have hit rock bottom.

Hi Photodlh, how are you doing and feeling now? I am checking in to make sure that all is progressing well.

You may be in "perimenopause" which can last a while before the actual menopause. When I went through that I drank soy-milk, took calcium. I also ate the toasted edamame. It seemed to help. Also an OTC med called Estrovan. That really helped.

Hugs,

Hi photodlh,
There is a product called "mendapause". It has worked wonders for me with mood swings and night sweats. I got the same story every time I went to the doctor. Go to Amazon.com, you will not regret it! Good luck!

I Believe Mendapause may have Black Cohosh in it. I am in menopause and that is what I am taking now. I don't have as severe a case as you are describing but the night sweats were a problem for me and some hot flashes are occuring and these the black cohosh is helping. Hope this helps.

I've been taking max strength Estroven for several years but the night sweats are back and in full force! I have an appt with the GYN next week. I hope she can help me. Even tho I sleep with a fan blowing directly on me at night and I still wake up with my face and neck sweating profusely. I had to have a hysterectomy at 27 because I had cervical cancer but I still have my ovaries. I hope we all get some help for this. I'm also more easily aggravated lately but that could just be the stress of getting ready for last weekend's family reunion. However, the reunion is over but not the bitchiness that comes and goes!

What's really helping me with my flushes is a gel called Chillicious by Temple Spa. It doesn't help with the not knowing but it might help you get through the night. I use it mainly when I am in meetings and feel a flush coming on. A little bit on the back of my neck feels great.
