Hot flushes in COVID times
Have you struggled with hot flushes?
I have to admit that up until this weekend I had not! I’ve had heart palpitations, anxiety, mood swings and night sweats but not hot flushes. I first experienced peri-menopause symptoms about 4-5 years ago. I struggled for a while before I realised that it was peri-menopause - and then took steps to address my symptoms. Working across nutrition, lifestyle and some supplements I was able to completely eliminate all my symptoms.. and in fact felt happier than I had for years.
That was until this weekend when I had my first hot flush. (I’m still perimenopausal so I was anticipating some more symptoms!)
If you’ve never had one it’s a little worrying in these COVID times as at first you wonder if you’ve a fever - and start to panic about all that that implies - but as it dissipates you realise that no it’s not coronavirus - it's a hot flush.
Happily I know that I can take action to manage my symptoms - and have started using some supplements, as well as stress relieving techniques (stress levels have been rising recently), and continuing with my nutrition practices - as well as looking to see where I can make changes / improvements.
I’m using all the knowledge that I share with the women who join my Thriving Through Menopause programme - and I know that that knowledge will mean that I can manage this.
I’ll be sharing with you how I go.
But if you’re struggling with hot flushes, and looking for improvement join me and like-minded women in my new Thriving Through Menopause group.
