Night sweats are a hallmark of perimenopause, yet many women feel isolated or embarrassed. According to the North American Menopause Society, up to 75% of women experience hot flashes or night sweats, and 30% say it significantly disrupts sleep. These episodes are linked to estrogen decline, which affects the hypothalamus — the body’s thermostat. Even minor stress or warm rooms can trigger intense sweating and wakefulness. Solutions include breathable bedding, temperature-regulated rooms, avoiding spicy food or alcohol before bed, and medical consultation for hormone therapy if symptoms are severe. Over-the-counter phytoestrogens or lifestyle adjustments also help. Your night sweats are not trivial — they’re signals that your body is transitioning. Recognition and care are the first steps toward relief. #Health#WomensHealth #HormoneHealth
