How is your testosterone level?

Do not know?

Find out. It could be thermal dysregulation due to low T. Could also be Covid-19.

Low T can cause thermal dysregulation - hot or cold flashes. So can Covid-19.

Not sure my experience is relevant because I have also been on Lipton and Eligard (androgyn deprivation therapy) which lowers my testosterone. My internal thermostat seems to have been off ever since. For me, it’s more hot flashes than chills, but I also do have periodic chills that my husband assures me have nothing to do with the temperature in the room.

besides the hot flashes - they seem to come in waves these days, I find that I am cold or chilled a lot - ask person I live with who says the house is a comfortable temp - constant layers on - layers off - grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr really looking forward to spring
