Hot Flashes

Are you female and sometimes experience a sudden, hot feeling on your face and upper body? According to Mayoclinic, hot flashes are "most commonly caused by changing hormone levels before, during and after menopause." During a hot flash you may experience:

• A sudden feeling of warmth spreading through your chest, neck and face

• A flushed appearance with red, blotchy skin

• Rapid heartbeat

• Perspiration, mostly on your upper body

• A chilled feeling as the hot flash lets up

• Feelings of anxiety (Mayoclinic)
