Hot flashes are a physiological symptom of redness of the skin caused by a decrease in estradiol in women during menopause. There may be more than one factor that can cause hot flashes, but a common factor is that the hormones in the body drop during menopause. Most people who encounter it will feel hot, sweaty, and rapid heartbeat, and each hot flash will last about 2 to 30 minutes.
Symptoms and signs
People with it (common in menopausal and near-menopausal people) mostly experience hotness, sweating, and a fast heartbeat. Each hot flash lasts about 2 to 30 minutes, and when the hot flash ends, the symptoms will disappear quickly.
Severe hot flashes can lead to poor sleep quality at night. Which can lead to insomnia, impaired mood, concentration, and other physical problems.
Hot flashes that occur late at night are also known as “night sweats”. This is because the concentration of estrogen in the body is usually lowest in the middle of the night. Some women may experience night sweats but no hot flashes at other times.

There can be many reasons for men to experience flushing. Flushing may be a sign of low testosterone in men. Another possible sign is: male menopause. Men with prostate or testicular cancer may also experience it. Hot flashes are also significantly more likely to occur in those who are being treated with antiandrogens, as this lowers testosterone levels close to those of castrated testes. For example, people who have been castrated are also more likely to experience hot flashes. Of course, there are other conditions (ailment not aliment) that may cause flushing in men. Diet may also play a role in flushing
