Menopause Oil

Hot flushes and night sweats are the most common symptoms of the menopause. They usually occur over a period of a few months, but for some women they can go on for a number of years. Hot flushes are caused by a sudden drop in oestrogen. This is why flushes usually stop once the level of oestrogen stabilises. Women can have hot flushes on the neck and face, upper arms, torso or the entire body. Hot flushes may last a few seconds or a few minutes and they can be strong or mild. Increased blood flow to the area raises the skin temperature and this creates a flush, red and blotchy skin. Sweating is the bodies way of trying to cool down. Some ways to ease symptoms are- Wear natural fabrics that breathe, carry a foldable fan with you to help cool down, don't fight the flush and try to relax if you can, use cotton sheets and wear lightweight cotton or silk to bed or don't wear anything at all, drink less coffee and alcohol and avoid spicy food especially late at night as they can make flushes and sweats worse.
