We all know that middle-aged and elderly people often sleep very late and get up very early, which means they sleep very little. Not only do they sleep less, they also often sweat at night. After going out, they feel weak all over and can't fall asleep again. This is probably because of the physical weakness of middle-aged and elderly people. Hot flashes and night sweats are more likely to happen to them. So, what Chinese patent medicine can they take for hot flashes and night sweats?

Menopausal hot flashes are a prominent manifestation of menopausal syndrome, mainly caused by a decrease in hormone levels. They can easily affect our work and life and cause harm to our physical health. More than three-quarters of women experience hot flashes during menopause. This sudden feeling of heat can spread from the torso to the face and is unpleasant. Some women blushed, others felt their heartbeats quicken and felt anxious. This may happen several times a day or even every hour, depending on the individual.

Experts point out that estrogen is a hormone that directly affects the hypothalamus, which is related to appetite, sleep, sex hormones and body temperature. Therefore, when estrogen levels in the body drop, it can cause the brain to mistakenly think that the body temperature is too high. As a result, the brain signals the heart to pump more blood and the sweat glands to release more sweat. As a result, women may suddenly feel hot and produce profuse, unpleasant sweat, which is known as menopausal hot flashes.

Many women find that their menopausal hot flashes are caused by external factors, with stress being the biggest trigger. Other known triggers of menopausal hot flashes include spicy foods, hot foods, drinking, smoking, caffeine, or diet pills.

If you don't know anything about menopause, then when some symptoms of menopause appear, women will feel worried, and the bad mental state will aggravate the symptoms of menopause, forming a vicious circle. Therefore, menopausal women should pay attention to learn more about common sense.
