Have you ever felt suddenly flushed and sweaty, wondering if it's menopause or anxiety triggering these sensations? Deciphering the source of these fiery hot flashes can be confusing, but understanding their root cause is key to effective management.
Menopause, often dubbed the "phase of change," typically occurs in women aged late 40s to early 50s. It is a truly a change like no other. It involves a natural decline in reproductive hormones like estrogen and progesterone, leading to the cessation of menstrual periods. Hot flashes, characterised by sudden waves of heat, flushing, sweating, and sometimes palpitations, are some of the common menopausal symptoms you may have heard of.
Anxiety, a beast in its own right, is something many of us women face at different stages of life. Have you ever noticed how your body reacts when you're feeling anxious? It's like a surge of adrenaline, making your heart race, your breathing shallow, and very often triggering hot flashes. These moments can catch us off guard and leave us feeling vulnerable.
Spotting the Difference
Pinpointing the cause of your hot flashes isn't always straightforward, but here are some clues:
Timing: Menopausal hot flashes tend to be more prevalent during perimenopause and can persist post-menopause, often occurring predictably. Anxiety-related hot flashes, however, can be more sporadic and occur in response to stressors or anxious feelings.
Triggers: Menopausal hot flashes may be easily brought-on by spicy foods, alcohol, or warm environments. Anxiety-related hot flashes usually get triggered by stressful situations or emotional turmoil.
Common Symptoms: Menopausal hot flashes often come with other hallmark symptoms like mood swings, sleep disturbances, and vaginal dryness, while anxiety-related hot flashes might be part of a broader spectrum of anxiety symptoms such as worry, restlessness, and difficulty concentrating.
Managing Those Fiery Episodes
Identifying which foods and drinks trigger your symptoms can be helpful. Staying hydrated and cool is important. Similarly, identifying and minimising stress triggers, practicing mindfulness, meditation, yoga, and engaging in simple exercises can effectively manage symptoms.
