Hi all,
I need some good advice and for someone to tell me what I am going through is normal, I hope.
I am 52, still have my periods every month. Except for the month of September 08, I missed the month. Now for the past three weeks, I get VERY cold, from the tips of my toes to the top of my head. No matter what I do, put lots of clothes on, sit in front of the heater, I freeze. Then like a flip of a switch, I am so HOT I can't stand it. It is like an internal heat and that to is from top to bottom. Here is the stranger part. It all happens in the evening hours. During the day I am fine. But it seems once evening comes, Wham !!! it's off and on, hot and cold all night long.
Can anyone help with any idea what is going on?
I appreciate all comments.
Thank you

Why not get in for a complete physical? In cultures that don't expect menopausal problems they don't have them. Could be your thyroid or some other imbalance. I figure I must be perimenopausal at 50 + and thought I might be having hot flushes a while back, then I realized it was over 100 degrees and I was just as hot as everybody else. The getting chilled is kind of different but winter is coming. Just get a complete work up and put your mind at ease. Raspberry leaf tea is very good for women, so is evening primrose - check out some natural stuff too.
