Hot Flashes

Third night with no hot flashes, even reduced during day. Just from 450 MG of magnesium clycinate an hour or two before bedtime. Whoever recommended it, thank 😊

Just had my supplement delivered....and hoping for similar results during the night....as hot flashes had disrupted my sleep dramatically since starting ADT 9 months ago. Fingers crossed.

Last night was another success but with qualifications. It was cold so I used a comforter. This caused me to have minor hot flashes, nothing like before. If I used just a sheet it was better. Still the flashes were minor compared to previously. No dripping sweating and feeling hot and cold at the same time. So I guess I could use some heat even in the summer if it is cold. Exposing just my upper body allowed me to sleep pretty well. I never minded cold at night but now I am much more sensitive. I have become the old guy who always complains that he is cold when everyone else is fine :)

I was going to post a question about hot, cold flushes at the same time but you answered that question spencoid2. Started firmagon recently & apart from stiff joints & these flushes I feel fine. SO far anyway?

Glad you had such dramaic results. I have started using 400 mg 45 min before bed...and haven't noticed any difference. :(

you might need to add some placebo effect :) seriously i also have to pay attention to minimizing covers. i use just a sheet. we use wood heat primarily so it is quite cold in the winter which i like. i will see how it works with a comforter instead of a sheet.
