What are vasomotor symptoms (VMS) due to menopause?
Casually, we may describe hot flashes as temperature tantrums or a short vacation to the tropics.
Nearly half of women may experience moderate to severe VMS due to menopause.
With age, the ovaries naturally produce less estrogen (and progesterone).
But there’s more to the story than declining estrogen.
The hypothalamus is the part of your brain that regulates temperature, acting as the body’s internal thermostat.
Within your hypothalamus are KNDy neurons (pronounced likecandy), which play an important role in temperature control.
The body relies on this balance to keep its internal thermostat in check.
During the menopause transition, levels of estrogen and NKB become unbalanced.
To cool down, your hypothalamus triggers hot flashes and night sweats.
