And hot flushes are one voice in a whole choir.
Hot flushes (hot blooms, hot flashesโpick your word) can feel like burning from the inside, often rising up through the body, sometimes with sweats and sometimes without. They can show up in the day or at night.
And hereโs the bigger map: not everyone gets hot flushes, so they canโt be the only โproofโ that youโre in perimenopause. Midlife symptoms can also include weight shifts, blood sugar/inflammation changes, joint pain, hair thinning, fatigueโฆ and so much more.

โ Whatโs been your loudest symptom so farโsleep, heat, mood, weight shifts, energy, something else? Comment it or DM me.
