What causes hot flushes? The neuroendocrine origin of vasomotor symptoms in the menopause
Gynecological Endocrinology, 05/29/09
Rossmanith WG et al. - Vasomotor symptoms (VMS) such as hot flushes and night sweats are frequently encountered during menopause and can greatly reduce the quality of life. These symptoms are causally related to decreasing estradiol concentrations, mainly in the serum and subsequently also in the hypothalamic temperature regulating centre. The lack of estrogens alters neurotransmitter activity, especially in the serotonergic and noradrenergic pathways.
