If you suffer regularly from hot flashes...
Hot flashes are a meno-symptom we all know about, and love to hate.
These streaks of heat occur when decreased estrogen levels during menopause cause your body's thermostat (hypothalamus) to become more sensitive to slight changes in body temperature.
When the hypothalamus thinks your body is too warm, it starts a chain of events — a hot flash — to cool you down.
Which brings us to our next point.
Did you know that there are several things you do throughout the day that warms you up, which might trigger hot flashes unintentionally?
From the clothes you wear, how you dry your hair, to the beverages you drink…
Hot flash triggers might be hiding right under your nose, and you might have zero clues about it.
We all know the tell-tale signs of a hot flash — the prickling of hairs on our skin, the roaring flush on our faces, the sudden perspiration along our hairlines.
But we don’t always know what triggers them. Keeping in mind that different women have different triggers…
Do you know what really burns you up? And how to keep from overheating both inside and out?
Here are 5 surprising hot-flash triggers you might want to stop doing right away:
Once, a companion for relaxation, the cup of coffee or tea in the afternoon that warms you up from the inside...is now the reason why you’re covered head to toe in cold sweat.
Why is it a trigger: Hot drinks warm your body, setting off a hot flash.
It’s a problem for menopausal women because they’re more sensitive to temperature changes and have a lower tolerance for cold and heat.
Solution: Go for cooler beverages when hot flashes are active. If hot beverages are part of an afternoon or morning ritual, create new rituals with cooler drinks – like cold brew or iced tea, or just pain water with a slice of lemon.
If spending your time blowing out your hair used to be your favorite vanity routine, you might want to put that hair dryer down before it sends you into another hot flash meltdown.
Why is it a trigger: Since most hair appliances use a form of heat to dry and transform your hair into curls, waves and shiny locks, you’re bringing your temperature up every time you switch it on.
Not to mention the bright lights around your bathroom mirror that add to your daily “heat wave.”
Solution: Keep cool while styling your hair with a well-placed fan. Or try a more natural hairstyle that doesn’t need blasts of hot air to style..
If you’re used to spending long hours sunbathing on the beach, or sitting through baseball games, we have bad news for you.
What used to be a good time, can turn into you feeling anxious about sitting in the sun with friends or family, knowing you’ll be dripping in sweat in no time.
Why is it a trigger: When the weather heats up, so does your skin. And overheated skin can cause hot flashes in some menopausal women.
Solution: Avoid putting on too many layers and remove them everytime you’re getting warmer. Keep portable fans handy, because cooling down your skin temperature helps your core temperature stay in its comfort zone.
If pulling up a hot bath, paired with a nice book, music and bubbles in the tub is your favorite way to unwind, you might want to find a new outlet.
Because more often than not, within minutes of drying off you might be drenched again — with your own sweat.
Why is it a trigger: Soaking in hot water — in a bathtub, hot tub or warm pool – warms you inside and out, and that’s more likely to trigger a hot flash.
Solution: Take baths at a lower temperature, and shorter showers, and be sure you’re completely dry and cooled off before getting dressed.
That cute turtleneck that you bought because it looked great in the store and totally belongs in your wardrobe…actually doesn't.
Because, now thanks to it you need to cool yourself down in front of an open fridge every 5 minutes.
Why is it a trigger: Heavy or tight clothing — especially when made from “unbreathable” fabrics like nylon, spandex or polyester — warms you up by preventing body heat from escaping through your skin.
And being too warm can lead to hot flashes.
Solution: Stash those turtlenecks and nylon scarves in your closet until colder weathers, or when hot flashes are no longer an issue.
Layer your clothing so you can remove pieces during the day when needed, and try wearing more breathable fabrics like cotton.
Suffer from night sweats? Sleep in exercise clothing designed to wick moisture away from skin. And swap that heavy comforter for several lighter blankets that can be removed as you warm up.
