Re: Coping with Night Sweats

Hi :

I went on the low dose pill, since age 38, I am now 47, but I take it

continuously, no breaks, I had the hot flashes the same way, every 30 min, and

really bad. I thought I would spontaneously combust !!!!

Re: Coping with Night Sweats

Sorry for the large type, but I have a vision deficit...

Dear ,

I didn't get them under some control until I got to an endocrinologist, who

put me on Synthroid 25mcg. I had tried a couple of natural things, but they

mostly don't work for me. I had them 24/7 about every 20 minutes, at the worst

of it, about age 50, and I'm 60 now. Now they're just a few mild ones in the

middle of the night. Go to: hypothyroidism , and you'll get

more info than you ever wanted to know...

Let me know how it goes. Blessings.

Hello,

I have been to the indocrinologist for these sweats also but only get

them during my wake hours and none when sleeping or night. He said

it's a symptom of deficient Ammune system. I've been tested seven ways

of sunday for hormones and all comes back just fine. I am 48 and since

having a hysterectomy at a early age due to indometriosis, I've been

on 2 mg of estrace. (I understand is the highest dose given for this)

and also take thyroid meds that have been increased with same results

as being normal. It is frustrating, uncomfortable and if I hear of

anything that helps them, I will be the first one to write you!

God Bless.

Thanks for the replies so far. I just realized that I probably should

have mentioned that these are not menopausal hot flashes... I am 32,

my hormone levels tested fine and I have not had a hysterectomy or

anything. The night sweats don't seem to be hot flashes per se... I

don't feel overly warm, if anything I am freezing because I only wake

up after I'm wet and as the sweats evaporate, I get cold. I've also

had my thryoid levels checked about a million times and they

supposedly have been normal every time.

Hi ,

It might be better for us to use our logon names at least with our

real name if you prefer. I am new here and trying to respond has been

confusing at best at times (brain fog considered) but think it would

help to know exactly who we are responding to. Thanks for saying your

the initial thread starter and not the first reply...that helps

I am with you on the sweats that while your having them also chill you

to the bone while soaking everything around you. I shower so much

anymore I think my skin could not be any dryer as a result until the

sweats would start once again. I have found results in " Nature's Code

with coq10 that I've read can help also. I have no idea what part of

these vitamins are helping the sweats I was having but they are a

womans formula that I purchased off of QVC. (dont laugh, Im a shut in

lol) It could help you maybe? I haven't seen anyone come up with

anything that has helped them stop these but this certainly has

stopped mine. I do get periods of feeling warm but its very different

now from drenching myself to a point of sweat dripping off the ends of

my hair!

God Bless!

HOpe this helps you too!

I know that night sweats (and/or " day sweats " ) can be a side effect

of medications. This is probably the case with Klonopin. I double

checked with my doctors, pharmacist and even the web to make sure

that none of my meds had sweats listed as a side effect. If you

have to take Klonopin frequently and the sweats are an issue for

you, you might want to see if they are, indeed, a recognized side-

effect.

I think I'll be stopping at the store on the way home from work to

buy some CoQ10. I've heard lots of other good effects it has and

have been meaning to try it, so hearing it may help with night

sweats is just the kick in the pants I need to actually go out and

buy some.

Oh, and no worries about the QVC thing. My father is NOT a shut in

and is addicted to QVC. I've caught him tape-recording it so he

won't miss a deal (seriously!) , and he has been one of the call-ins

who get to talk on air more than once... The best part of it is

just a year or two before he got addicted, he used to mock my

grandma (his mother-in-law) behind her back for watching it. He

couldn't believe that she would sit there and watch it. But, that's

my dad for you... Ha-Ha! :-) (My mom is reaping the benefits of

his QVC habit... she gets lots and lots of jewelrey for birthdays,

Christmas, Valentine's Day and just because).

Hi :

What are the ingredients on your CQ-10. I am interested to know to see what may

be helping with the sweats or is it just CQ-10,

Thanks so much,

I have not been able to read most of the posts in a while, so I have to be

" selective " and just read the ones that mention something I'm going through

or have gone through. I hope this isn't confusing to people.

As to night sweats, I had them almost every night or morning for years. Then

they stopped. Now they've started again--but only when I'm way over-tired. I

know I shouldn't allow myself to get that tired, but sometimes it can't be

prevented. (When I moved recently, for instance. Even though I tried to pace

myself, there was so much to do and so little help, that I got too tired and

the night sweats started. As soon as I get enough (a lot!) of sleep and

rest, they stop.

That's all I know and I suppose it isn't much help...

Hi ! Try either an intergrative or alternative doctor.

Conventionals have done nothing for me! Lynn

Sage leaf is helpful with night sweats.

Hi ,

I've heard of quite a few people with night sweats (soaking their

beds at least once a night) improve using magnetic sleep systems.

They're pretty pricey though but I think it's worth it. I would buy

mine again anytime though as it solved my 30 years of insomnia in a

couple of weeks.

Do you think this sweating problem might be caused by toxins? I'm

not sure why the magnets work for this but I can ask a doctor who

probably knows if you're interested or I can look it up in one of my

unread magnet books. I think the magnets probably regulate hormones

as they will also increase calcium levels in the body. Time for a

course in physiology of the body!
