Introduction
Hot flushes are one of the most common and uncomfortable symptoms of menopause. They can strike unexpectedly, leaving you feeling flushed and sweaty. While hormone replacement therapy (HRT) can help, many women prefer to explore natural methods first.
Tips for Managing Hot Flushes
- Stay Hydrated: Drinking plenty of water can help regulate your body temperature. Try keeping a cool water bottle nearby.
- Dress in Layers: Lightweight, breathable fabrics make it easy to remove layers when a flush strikes.
- Practice Mindfulness: Stress can trigger hot flushes, so practicing yoga or meditation may help reduce their frequency.
- Consider Natural Supplements: Soy isoflavones, like those in Estroplus, have been shown to reduce the intensity and frequency of hot flushes (2).
Final Tip: Keep a Cooling Spray Handy
A quick spritz of water or a facial mist can be a lifesaver when you’re out and about.
