Knowing What is Hot Flash
Treating a hot flash can help you to get through it. Some easy to implement suggestions include making changes in 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. You can also treat a hot flash with a few simple tips such as taking a cool shower before bed, using cotton sheets instead of synthetics, and sipping iced water when a hot flash occurs.
