Understanding Hot Flashes & Night Sweats
What is Happening
As estrogen levels decline during perimenopause and menopause, the hypothalamus - the part of your brain that regulates body temperature - becomes more reactive to small changes.
This narrows your body’s thermoneutral zone - the range where you feel “just right.”
When that zone shrinks:
- Even mild warmth can trigger your body’s cooling response.
- Blood vessels widen to release heat, causing sudden flushing.
- Sweat glands activate to cool the skin.
- Heart rate may increase slightly as the body works to lower temperature.
These reactions create hot flashes during the day and night sweats while you sleep, when your core temperature naturally dips.
They’re a normal response to hormonal change - and often improve as balance is restored through lifestyle support or hormone therapy.

What Helps
While every woman’s experience is different, a few consistent strategies can help calm temperature swings and improve comfort:
- Keep your environment cool: use breathable bedding, cotton sleepwear, and a room temperature around 65–67°F.
- Limit triggers: reduce caffeine, alcohol, and spicy foods, especially in the evening.
- Practice stress relief: deep breathing, gentle yoga, and mindfulness lower cortisol, which can intensify hot flashes.
- Stay hydrated: replenishes fluid lost through sweating and helps your body regulate temperature.
- Support hormone balance: clinician-guided hormone therapy (HRT) can stabilize estrogen levels and reduce both hot flashes and night sweats.
- Track your symptoms: noting timing, intensity, and triggers helps your provider fine-tune your plan.
With consistent habits - and the right clinical support - most women notice meaningful relief within weeks.

Hot Flashes & Night Sweats: Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know before getting started.
What causes hot flashes and night sweats during menopause?
Falling estrogen levels affect the hypothalamus — your body’s temperature regulator — making it more sensitive to small changes in heat. This can trigger sudden warmth, sweating, and flushing, especially at night.
Are hot flashes normal during menopause?
Yes. Up to 80% of women experience them at some point during perimenopause or menopause. Frequency and intensity vary by person and can change over time.
How long do hot flashes usually last?
For most women, they peak during the transition into menopause and gradually lessen over several years. However, some continue to experience symptoms well into their 50s or 60s.
What helps reduce hot flashes naturally?
Keeping cool, wearing breathable fabrics, limiting caffeine and alcohol, and managing stress can help reduce symptoms. Mind-body practices like yoga or deep breathing may also support regulation.
Can hormone therapy help with hot flashes and night sweats?
Yes. Bioidentical hormone therapy (HRT) can stabilize estrogen levels and reduce temperature swings, improving comfort, sleep, and mood when prescribed by a licensed clinician.
What are bioidentical hormones?
Bioidentical hormones are plant-derived compounds that are structurally identical to the hormones your body naturally produces. They’re prescribed by clinicians and compounded in licensed U.S. pharmacies for precision and safety.
How long does it take to notice improvement with HRT?
Many women begin to notice reduced hot flashes and better sleep within 2–6 weeks of starting therapy, though full results may take longer as hormone levels rebalance.
Is hormone therapy safe for everyone?
Most women tolerate HRT well, but it’s not suitable for everyone. Your BeMediq clinician will review your health history, medications, and risk factors before prescribing any treatment.
Can I get treatment without visiting a clinic in person?
Yes. BeMediq offers clinician-guided telehealth visits and at-home lab testing. If prescribed, your personalized medications ship directly from licensed U.S. pharmacies.
What if I’m already on HRT but still having symptoms?
Your dosage or formulation may need adjustment. At-home hormone testing can help your clinician fine-tune your plan for optimal balance and symptom control.
How do I know if hormone therapy is right for me?
You can start by completing BeMediq’s online questionnaire. A licensed clinician will review your responses and recommend next steps - whether it’s lifestyle support, testing, or personalized HRT.
