okay so in this video we’re gonna talk

about hot flashes in the mechanism

behind a hot flash okay I’ve done other

videos on this but there are older

videos and I wanted to do something

updated the medical term for a hot flash

would be vasomotor instability and what

this means is there’s a kind of a

instability in the feedback loops

between the hypothalamus and the ovaries

okay and it creates a flushing response

they call a superficial vasodilation and

a deep drop in core temperature every

four minutes so it’s on a tiny mechanism

and you can get palpitations and

perspiration problems with the heart etc

okay it’s very uncomfortable usually

wakes you up when you’re trying to sleep

so a woman normally has about 400 eggs

that are released each month okay in

theory they’re supposed to be released

each month sometimes if you’re on birth

control pills it’s not going to happen

but you have a certain amount of eggs

then the last one you release and you go

into menopause roughly about age 52 so

at this point you don’t need the amount

of hormones okay because you’re not

going to have babies so what happens the

signal comes back up here and kicks in

another circuit for the adrenals because

the adrenal gland produces the same

hormones in smaller amounts but still it

produces the same hormone so the adrenal

glands are the back up to the ovaries so

really it’s a weakness within the

adrenal glands that triggers this

instability and causes these symptoms

now if a woman takes form on a placement

therapy it will completely get rid of

this hot flashes because what you’re

doing is you’re bypassing all this and

you’re completing this circuit

artificially okay and temporarily so the

actual trigger to the hot flash in the

first place is the weakness of the

adrenal that’s creating a an abrupt

decrease in estrogen that then if you

actually add the estrogen back in there

it just turns off okay so now that’s

pretty much the mechanism but now what

do we do about it okay there is various

natural things that you can take to

support this like black cohosh

but I’m gonna recommend supporting your

adrenal glands okay because that is the

thing that really created the problem in

the first place and I’m gonna put a link

down below of a bunch of things you can

do to support a healthy adrenal gland

okay but black cohosh is a really good

one to to actually supply some

phytoestrogens to help complete the

circuit if you need something stronger

I’m gonna recommend estrogen balance

which has a different blend of herbs and

something called dim which actually

helps balance estrogen too and if it’s

really really bad I recommend something

even stronger it’s called the adrenal

fatigue formula this is my strongest

adrenal fatigue normally you won’t need

this but on a rare occasion if there’s a

real big problem with hot flashes I

would do a combination of these two

right here because this one can support

a healthy adrenal gland and complete

this circuit right there so in summary

hot flashes are purely a communication

problem because the adrenal glands have

not backed up the ovaries properly and

this is the area to support right here

and the other thing that I want to

mention is when you take hormone

replacement therapy there’s a lot of

side effects so I’m gonna recommend you

try to do this as natural as possible to

avoid those okay alright thanks for

watching hey guys so I’m doing a survey

of a future video and I wanted to find

out what your biggest body problem is so

that way the content is aligning with

something that you are personally
