Hot Flashes?

[Jamie-o]

For those of you on T - How long until you started getting hot flashes?  Did you experience any nausea along with them?  I'm trying to figure out if that's what I was experiencing tonight, or if I'm coming down with something.

I have hot flashes every now and again depends on what mood I am in and some times they happen all on there own. Strange..

Not had the feeling of nausea though..

Sounds like you might be getting sick.

they happened after about a week for me.

I had hot flashes almost right away.  I'd wake up in the middle of the night, when I'm usually burying myself in covers, and throw everything off me and have to be nekkid.  TOO MUCH HEAT.  UGH.  Terrible stuff.

Hm.  I guess I could've experience nausea and not known it but I'm always feeling kind of sick, so it's hard to know.

I started having hot flashes perhaps a week or so after starting T.  No nausea, though.  Actually, I was a bit nauseous before the last time I bled, but then again my gut (stomach, bowels, bladder, everything) always felt pretty awful around that time; had a hard time keeping food down.  So the nausea wasn't T-related for me...

The hot flashes themselves were kinda strange: I'd feel quite warm and then it felt as though there was cold water dripping down my legs.  A few times at night I woke up sweaty.  But all in all not too bad.  I'm perhaps lucky that the hot flashes were most frequent when we were having below-freezing (scratch that--below 0 degrees F) weather; just step outside into the freezing wind and they went away  .  The hot flashes have decreased in frequency quite a bit after 4 months... can't remember when the last one happened, actually (perhaps a few weeks ago?).

I haven't had them since the first time I got on T... at that point, they started about 5 hours following my first shot. By the second week they were gone, but I had ankle swelling that lasted about 3 months. SO glad that's all over and done with.

I got back on T for the 3rd time about 2 months ago, and I had none of that... maybe my body is just getting more accustomed to the change. I do get way too hot very easily, but it's not hot flashes... my body has just changed the way in which it reacts to temperature changes. I never get cold anymore, even though I always did before T, and anything over about 75 degrees is WAY too hot, especially if I'm trying to go to sleep at night.

I'm not on T and I have hot flashes every so often so it could just be your own body. One time I had hot flashes every evening/night for two weeks straight.

[sneakersjay]

None, not even after my hysto.  But I think I'm weird, because everyone else seems to.  If I've had any, then they've occurred at a time where I'd normally be sweating anyway and I didn't notice, or they were very mild.

A friend of mine had them so bad his bed was soaked with sweat.

Nope, I haven't had hot flashes either. I do get hot in bed sometimes (no, not like that! ) but that's always been the case and hasn't changed since I've been on T. No change since my hysto either.

[Dennis]

Never had them either. I do sweat-bomb in bed sometimes, but I've always done that. I think I wrap the covers so tightly around myself in my sleep that I heat up and don't wake up until I'm on fire.

Did you experience any nausea along with them?

nope no nausea.

For those of you on T - How long until you started getting hot flashes?

still get hot all over after I shoot T (been on it for 3 yrs)    even in the winter time I gotta sleep w/no covers If I work out say for 1hr I feel better.

I'm sure you're always hot in bed, flameboy. 

Thanks for the answers, guys.  I think I figured out where the nausea was coming from, and it had nothing to do with the T.  Still not sure if I was getting hot flashes as well, though.  I find it interesting that some of you have never gotten them.  I guess I'm just looking for a sign that the reproductive system is shutting down.  I'm so hoping that I've had my last ever visit from Aunt Ruby.

I'm on a higher dose of T as of last week, and NOW I'm experiencing nausea with my hot flashes.

It's not the T. You're just pregnant. 

[Jamie-o]

It's not the T. You're just pregnant. 

If I am, it's a miracle! 

[Kayden]

If I am, it's a miracle! 

Same here... but not one I'd enjoy.

[Jay]

Now thats a scary thought. But impossible. But still equally scary.
