Ask Dr. Carolle |
Two months ago I finally went to the doctor, after a couple of months of hot flashes. I am still having my periods. Should I worry? Also I am hardly sleeping. By the time mid-morning comes I am so tired, and I don't need that at my job. Also I have a severe lack of interest in sex. My age is 46 years.

All the symptoms that you mentioned could be related to stress.
If you are stressed you will have hot flashes, and difficulty sleeping. If you don’t sleep well you will get tired. Chronic fatigue will eventually lead to sexual problems.
You need to take a good look at your present life situation and keep a journal to find out the root cause.
