Hot flashes and excessive sweating are symptoms of the menopausal syndrome. This condition arises from declining androgen levels and typically occurs between ages 45 and 55, with menstrual irregularities being a common feature of the perimenopausal transition. Although both men and women can be affected, it is more prevalent in women. Menopausal syndrome leads to menstrual changes, such as reduced menstrual flow or prolonged cycles. Additionally, patients may experience insomnia, vivid dreams, and profuse sweating.
