Handling Hot Flashes Better
The easiest way to handle hot flashes is changing your wardrobe. Wear layers of clothes, so it is easy to remove a layer when a hot flash strikes. Avoid turtlenecks and stick to loosely collared shirts instead. Wear cotton pajamas and if you sweat a lot at night, consider wearing a loose nightgown, which is a lot easier to quickly change in the dark. Taking cold showers before sleeping is a good way to treat hot flashes. Statistics states that at least eighty five percent of women will experience hot flashes during menopause. That is why it is vital to start at an early age in preparing for menopause and hot flashes.
