Rep Power: 14 ![]() ![]() | Weightloss and night sweats!! Was just wondering if anyone else has been suffering with night sweats after weightloss? I have lost 5 1/2 stone with LL and started management at the end of may. since aboput mid july i have been suffering from really bad night sweats, i wake up soaking wet with my clothes (if i am wearing any ) stuck to me or if naked then a pool of sweat on my breast bone. I dont feel hot just wet!!! it never happens in the day time and infact most of the time I am on the chilly side, I have spoken to my GP who checked to see if it could be a side affect of my MIrena coil ( its not).!! He is of the opinion that it is due to my dramatic weightloss and that before, as in all obese women I had a lot more oestrogen in my body , as oestrogen is produced in fat ( or something like that!!) anyway thats why obese women have a higher incidence of female related cancers, breast, uterine etc ( and so infact do Men, breast cancer). He says as i have less fat my levels have dropped, not to an abnormal level (as in the menopause ) but to a level that my body is having to adjust too. Has anyone else had this ? Does anyone else know anything about this? All answers and opinions welcome please ( costing me a fortune in washing powder!!!) He has suggested that i could try some natural phyto-oestrogens, like black co-osh and include some soya in my diet, but do already have a fair bit but am going to try to have a bit more. Am def going to try the blach co osh. |

Rep Power: 1000 ![]() Diet: Lipotrim Start Date: 3/1/2012 | Hi Heidi, Karion dieting mentioned she has night sweats but she puts this down to the menopause I have gone through the menopause and have lost six stone and three more stone to go and I am just cold, ...never really noticed the change as they call it. When I thought I might of being going through the menopause my own doctor told me that they only way they could tell if they had a base line of what my hormone levels were and to work from and then compare this in a few months again. It did show that my estrogen levels were falling. Sorry I can not be more of a help. Love Mini xxx |

I have naturally wavy hair that i always straighten but i sweat so much in my sleep i wake up with curly hair!!!

I've never been a sweaty person so this has been bugging me for a few months now!!!

Doctor put it down to the menopause. Since finishing the diet, the flushes are less, periods haven't returned (haven't had one in about 3 years, but they were iffy for about 5 years before that), so I reckon she was right Goody, goody ![]() | |
