I've just started experiencing night sweats. I am post-menopausal. Haven't had a period in 10 years. Are there other medical issues I should be addressing?
Night sweats?
Wow, you're only just starting night sweats after 10 years?
Night sweats are hormonal imbalances that stop the body from heating and cooling properly.
It's very normal to get these but gee not that far down the path, well I don't think. Maybe you're just lucky to have got away with it for so long.
Have you been taking any medication and suddenly stopped?
Some people just put up with all the symptoms and take nothing and they are still healthy people just a little confused at times.
Night sweats?
Medical science doesn't acknowledge spiritual reality. We
have such experiences when we sleep.
If only for the psychological value. Pray, or do some type of meditation that will help you feel more secure in your sleep.
Like lighting a candle and blessing your home.
Reply:This is often a sign of a systemic disease. See your doctor for a checkup.
Reply:you need to see a doctor maybe a TB problem
Reply:see a dr. if there is pain in chest or high blood pressure, Cholestrol, or u obese or fatigue feeling in the morning.It is nothing to do with menopause which is over 10 yrs back. It may be heart nothing to worry. Get a check done.

Medical inquiries are best answered by a physician. You know for yourself, as a precautionary measurement, that testing may be required.
Reply:There are lots of strategies I could give you to help cope with night sweats, but what concerns me is the ten year gap. You don't say what age you are, but it seems to me if your hormone levels have been low enough to prevent menstruation for that long, that the other signs of menopause, such as night sweats and insomnia would have been present also.
Every woman is different though, you may quite possibly be a variant of normal. May be a nice reminder to go have a yearly checkup at the gynecologist, just to reassure yourself that everything is okay. He or she can look at your entire history, in addition to the findings on a physical exam and lab work to better assess if you are in the normal range or anything is amiss.
Think how much better and less anxious you will feel when the doctor gives you a thumbs up!
Reply:yes besides menopause it could be a prescriptin you are taking like pain meds or you could be experiencing heart problems when i was having night sweats this is what the dr told me and after she ruled out the post-menopause and heart problems she concluded it was the darvocet i was taking at night for fibromyalgia good luck to you
