Do heat flashes have anything to do with pregnancy?

I thought heat flashes only happened when you were going through metapause.

Answer #2

well i dunno im only seventeen and im gettin them every ten minutes!

Answer #3

No, hot flashes are mostly caused by the hormonal changes of menopause, but can also be affected by lifestyle and medications.

Answer #4

Wait, i just researched this a little more and yes it can. One of the main things that cause hot flashes are stress and anxiety and pregnant women do have a lot of anxiety.

Answer #5

They could. During pregnancy, your hormones are all out of whack and hot flashes are caused by hormones.

Answer #6

They could because your hormones are changing quite rapidly during pregnancy.

Answer #7

They can be, but they can also be a symptom of many other things.
