The most common menopausal symptom is hot flashes, sudden sensations of intense heat. Some women break out with red blotches on the chest, back, and/or arms; sweat profusely; and also experience cold and shivering until their bodies readjust. While some women never experience hot flashes, some women endure them for up to 30 minutes at a time. Hot flashes are generally considered to be a direct result of changing estrogen levels and can linger for years. Hormone modulation can prevent or at least relieve hot flashes.
