Extremely Tired and Major Hot flashes/sweating

I was on Femara, Met and had an HCG trigger this month.

For the past week I have taken a 1-3 hour nap after work and then still gone to bed before 10, which is not normal. The last few days I have been dripping in sweat. I just can't keep cool. Did anyone else experience this?

FWIW- I don't feel like I am getting sick.

Re: Extremely Tired and Major Hot flashes/sweating

  • Are you on any progesterone?  I jsut posted about hot flashes and people said it's done it to them.  I didn't have it with progesterone, but I'm getting bad hot flashes now.

    Progesterone made me CRAZY tired, though.

  • Nope, No progesterone. I was thinking maybe the HCG trigger, but wouldn't it wear off by now? I had that on the 30th.
  • I can't really say about the drugs that you are on, but when I was on the higher does of follistin and menopur I was waking up drenched in sweat in the middle of the night.  And not from the room temperature!  After they lowered the doses that stopped.  The whole time I was on the stims I was really tired.  I think it was a combination of the drugs/hormones and the stress.  

    But if it's been a while for you I would definitely ask your nurse.

  • I haven't been on that drug combo, but this last cycle my Clomid hot flashes were AWFUL, I think some other drugs do the same.  Met consistently leaves me feeling exhausted all the time - it is a sucky s/e.  GL!!
  • Thanks! I think I will call my nurse tomorrow. I was never this tired on 1000mg of met and I'm only on 500 now. I think the tiredness might be from the stress.
