Hot flashes can be disruptive, but a handful of practical strategies can take the edge off and help you feel more in control.
- Dress in light, breathable layers you can remove easily.
- Keep a small fan nearby and your bedroom cool at night.
- Notice triggers like spicy food, caffeine, and alcohol.
- Practice slow breathing when a flash begins.
If hot flashes are affecting your sleep or quality of life, talk with your doctor about additional options.
