I am having really bad night sweats and day sweats for that matter .I am hoping someone has experienced a herbal remedy for thyis that does work.The nights are especially bad..
I'm 47 and I've been premenopausal for 4 years or more, periods still are regular, hair loss during this time, yikes. Anxiety is high and weight loss going too low, which has always been a problem in my life until I went into my 40's then my weight seemed normal..but now it's going down along with my appetite.
Progressly to the point of every night, terrible night sweats, like I'm in a 450 oven, then chills…my blow dryer has been my best friend. No day time break outs.
I've tried health store products, hormone therapy nothing takes these night sweats away. Quality of life has become disabiling daily.
I surprisingly found out that if I drink alcohol at night time, like five beers, I don't sweat. I know this is not recommend but it's the only thing that has helped.
Has anyone experienced alcohol helping or am I being misdiagnosed…test for thyroid was fine.
done the shower thing and health food store remedies…
why is alcohol working, it's like it takes the liquid out of my system.
I've been getting terrible night sweats for 2 years. I've considered every possibility and nothing seems to be causing them. My doctor did a thyroid btest and I went for a thyroid ultrasound and everything is fine. I've had every blood test from HIV to hepatitis and all are negative.
I've ruled out the obvious (too many blankets, hot room, etc). Even with a light blanket I wake up in the middle of the night soaked from head to toe & so is the bed. This happens about 3-5 night/ week. My husbands says I'm a human hot water bottle and he can feel how hot I am if he touches me while I'm sleeping.
I'm SO tired of changing sheets and waking up in the middle of the night freezing from my bed being soaked with sweat.
I take a couple medications: Paxil daily, Benadryl or sudafed sometimes. It doesn't matter what I take as the night swears seem to happen randomly.
Haven't had hormone levels tested yet, but I know I'm NOT having early menopause as my cycles are normal. BTW, I'm 34 yrs old.
Also, I have hair loss and regrowth all over my head. No baldness patterns and lots of hair regrowth, but it's still falling out. I don't know if hair loss & night sweats are related.
off for the last few months could it be the lower dose and the weaning off or the hormones themselves that are causing this her hair is brittle and dry too any info would be a great help as she is also suffering from night sweats and hot flashes during the day needless to say it is rather unpleasant around here(to say the least)
