Midnight Meltdown - why are hot flashes worse at night?


Hot Flashes and Night Sweats can feel like a Meltdown.

Hey fabulous ladies! Hot Flashes keeping you up?


Snug as a bug in a rug, about to drift into dreamland, when bam! You're hit with a blast of heat that feels like a tropical sauna. Sound familiar? Welcome to the world of menopause night sweats, where the heat keeps coming, even after dark.


So, why do these nighttime hot flashes seem to pack an extra punch?


Hormonal Havoc: As estrogen levels decline during menopause, our body's internal thermostat becomes dysregulated, leading to the onset of hot flashes. Now, here's where it gets interesting: at night, our body naturally attempts to lower its core temperature as part of the sleep cycle. However, with estrogen levels plummeting and the body's temperature regulation mechanisms in disarray, this nocturnal cooling process can inadvertently trigger more intense hot flashes.


Tropical Temptations: Living in tropical regions such as Singapore presents its own unique challenges when it comes to managing menopausal symptoms especially Hot Flashes. The combination of high temperatures and humidity levels can exacerbate the discomfort of nighttime hot flashes. In these sultry climates, the body may struggle even more to dissipate heat, making hot flashes feel more intense and disruptive, particularly during the night when the external environment remains humid and warm.


Cortisol Culprit: As if hormonal fluctuations weren't enough, stress and anxiety can further exacerbate the intensity of nighttime hot flashes. Cortisol levels tend to peak in the early hours of the morning. The combination of elevated cortisol levels and hormonal imbalances can create a perfect storm for nighttime discomfort.


Menopausal Symptoms especially Hot Flashes can disrupt your sleep pattern.


But fret not, my fellow night sweaters, for armed with knowledge, we can conquer this midnight menace.


Ladies, let's talk solutions! 


Dietary: Plant-based estrogen, found in soy products and flaxseeds, can naturally balance hormones and ease menopausal symptoms. Healthy Diet during this transformative phase can bring about many positive differences.
