Frequently Asked Questions

What causes hot flashes?

Hot flashes result from hypothalamic dysregulation triggered by declining estrogen during perimenopause and menopause. The hypothalamus — which regulates body temperature — becomes hypersensitive to small temperature changes, triggering inappropriate heat-dissipation responses perceived as sudden warmth and flushing.

How long do hot flashes typically last?

On average, hot flashes last 7–10 years — beginning in perimenopause and persisting after the final menstrual period. About 10–15% of women experience hot flashes for 10 or more years. Frequency and severity vary significantly between individuals.

Is hormone therapy the most effective treatment?

Systemic hormone therapy remains the most effective treatment for hot flashes — reducing frequency by 75–90%. For most healthy women under 60 within 10 years of menopause, benefits outweigh risks. Individual cardiovascular, breast, and personal health factors guide the decision.

What non-hormonal prescription options exist for hot flashes?

Fezolinetant (Veozah) is the first FDA-approved non-hormonal medication specifically targeting vasomotor symptoms via NK3 receptor blockade. SSRIs, SNRIs, gabapentin, and clonidine have supporting evidence. Each has a distinct side effect profile discussed during consultation.

What side effects are associated with hot flash treatments?

HRT may cause breast tenderness, bloating, and spotting — with small breast cancer risk noted with long-term combined use. Fezolinetant requires liver monitoring. SSRIs and SNRIs may cause GI symptoms and sexual side effects. Gabapentin commonly causes drowsiness and dizziness. Hot Flashes Consult visit What to expect from a Hot Flashes Consult visit
