Is it okay to have night sweats?




Is it? I have them at times when I nap during the day. About 3-5 times a month. Is it normal?




I am 50 and still have periods. I must be in perimenopause because I am so fatigued all the time.
Even after a good night sleep I am tired in the morning and usually require a 2 hour nap during the day. Don’t have energy to do much. Have been to the Dr. and all my blood tests are normal.




I had a really bad sinus infection and was given an injection of a steroid called solu medrol. The next day, when I woke up from a nap, my cheeks were extremly flushed, and hot to the touch. I checked and my tempature was normal. Could this possibly be a reaction from the shot, or is this normal when taking steroids. Please Help!!




I am 27 yrs old and healthy so it’s not hot flashes. But for the past few months I have been waking up throughout the night soaked and freezing. This keeps happening and i don’t know what to do about it! It’s very frustrating and uncomfortable to deal with every time i go to bed or take a nap. What could be my problem????




I am a 44 yr old woman of African descent. About 6 months ago I cut my waist-long, all-natural, 21 yr old dreadlocks. I was surprised to find the texture of my hair completely changed. Before it was VERY thick, coarse, and nappy (I don’t consider "nappy" a pejorative term, as "nap" actually refers to the texture of a rich, heavy fabric like velvet). But after being cut it was very soft and curly. I thought maybe it was a temporary thing, but 6 months later it’s still the same. I cut my dreads because my hair was thinning due to medications, & they were all about to break off anyway. My question- have any other POC experienced a dramatic change in hair texture like this? Is this something that sometimes happens with the natural aging process? with perimenopause? Or are the meds to blame (interferon & ribavirin)? I don’t think it’s due to the long time wearing dreadlocks because I’ve noticed a similar change in my body hair. It’s a mystery!

Missed period (perimenopause) or pregnancy….?




I am 1 week late, minor cramping, bloated but nothing out of this world, few days had lack of appetite, 2 days ago was sleepy and took a nap, today I was so emotional. I am 42, think this could be perimenopause because of my age, but a friend told me could be pregnancy???? Is there a difference in symptoms??? Or is ti the same… help
