Menopause and Coping with Hot Flashes

When women want to learn how to cope with menopause, their first question is how to deal with hot flashes. It is extremely common for females to experience a sudden sensation of intense warmth in their upper body during this period of their life.

This occurs due to the smaller amounts of estrogen produced by the ovaries. Fortunately, there are some methods for dealing with the problem.

Stay hydrated to cope with hot flashes during menopause. Drinking plenty of water helps for regulating all naturally occurring processes in the body.

Staying hydrated will help your body to control its temperature within normal limits. It is recommended for women to drink around 48 ounces of water per day to prevent hot flashes.

Avoid hot and spicy food and hot places. This is a very simple tip, but it works effectively for preventing hot flashes.

As the temperature of your body is not promoted to increase, you are less likely to experience intense warmth.

In general, you may want to keep the thermostat down during winter and set the air conditioner to cool the room to a lower temperature during the summer. These methods for prevention are equally simple and effective.

Consider using flaxseed and vitamin E. These natural substances are known to reduce hot flashes as well, even though the results from scientific studies remain inconclusive.

In general, flaxseed is good for you as it is rich in omega-3, 6 and 9 fatty acids which lower the risk of heart and brain disease and reduce the effects of aging.

Vitamin E helps to promote healthy skin. Both types of natural supplements are safe and beneficial to use in appropriate dosages so you do not risk anything if you try them.

Deep breathing and dressing in layers are effective methods for dealing with hot flashes when they occur. By breathing deeply and slowly, you aid the natural temperature regulation of your body.

That way, the hot flashes become less severe and considerably shorter. All you have to do in order to use this method is to master deep breathing techniques.

Dressing in layers is a simple solution that helps. As soon as you feel the intense warmth, you just need to remove the upper layer of clothing to get back to normal.

Consider using hormonal replacement therapy for hot flashes as a last resort. If the natural methods for coping with this symptom of menopause do not produce the desired results, then you may choose this option after weighing its pros and cons.
