Success after IF

Did anyone have hot flashes before they were on fertility meds?

I noticed in the post below about Clomid that people had hot flashes on Clomid.  I was wondering if anyone had them before pregnancy--as in even before being on meds.  I was having hot flashes and horrible night sweats all during ttc as soon as I went of the pill.  Actually, I've had them anytime I haven't been on birth control going back even to my early 20's.  My RE thought this was related to the DOR and the hormonal issues that go along with that.  Anyone else have this?

Re: Did anyone have hot flashes before they were on fertility meds?

  • hot flashes and night sweats could be related to hormonal imbalances. I would recommend talking to someone who does traditional chinese medicine like an acupuncturist to evaluate your diet. Just a change in what you are eating may help.

  • I have always "ran hot"...never thought about it being related to my IF but I totally get what you are saying.  Although I have never been officially dx as DOR...I respond like that.  Might be worth looking into acupuncture to help...
