Drenched Night Sweats without Any Anseers
Hi everyone,
I don't know where to turn anymore. Some backstory, as soon as I turned 38 this past January, I began experiencing night sweats. I've had them for the past few years, normally the week before my period was due and that was it.
However, it has turned into every single night now, some nights worse than others. Last night I barely slept, I had to change my clothes TWICE, they were that wet.
I'm at a loss on what to do. My family doctor ran tests, I had a whole body MRI, a chest x ray, labs upon labs - everything looks fine. I went to see a doctor who specializes in women's hormones, my labs again came back fine with the exception of being unable to detect bio available testosterone and lower range DHEA. She prescribed BHRT for DHEA, I haven't yet started it as we are awaiting results from the DUTCH test I had done. My family doctor was concerned about cancer, due to the night sweats, and so that's why all these tests and labs were done.
I don't know what to do. No one has answers, my family doctor says nothing points to peri menopause, the other doctor specializing in women's health says it's very likely that's what it is - however there is no definite test.
I guess I am wondering - has anyone experienced anything similar? What did you do, how did you obtain proper support?
Thank you so much for reading.
