Question 1

does nortrriptyline  cause hot flushes ?

Accepted Answer

Maybe: In a couple of ways that i can think of. First, nortriptyline (which i think is an excellent medication for certain conditions), may interfere with a person's ability to sweat. That could cause over heating. Secondly, nti can cause a person to have a drop in blood pressure after standing up too quickly. I can see how someone could become flushed when that occurs. Ask your dr who rxed it.

Question 2

Question 3

Question 5

what could be the cause of hot flashes mid twenties ?

Accepted Answer

Ovarian Failure: Hot flashes could be a sign of thyroid disease. It may also not be related to your hormones at all. However the diagnosis that is important to rule out is ovarian failure.

Question 6

Circulation: The hot flashes you may be experiencing while pregnant are not the same as those experienced by women in menopause.  Menopausal hot flashes are due to lack of estrogen.  Pregnancy is a high estrogen state.  Most likely the hot flashes in pregnancy are due to changes in your circulation and increased heat generated by the baby.

Question 8

what causes hot flashes and sick to stomach?

Accepted Answer

Related?: Hot flashes are common at your age and are related to a decrease in estrogen production by your ovaries which leads to instability of the 'thermoregulatory' center of your brain.  This leads to spontaneous peripheral vasodilation and the resultant 'hot flash'.  These specifically are not typically associated with stomach upset, and this should be evaluated, especially if you have heart disease.

Question 9

Accepted Answer

Yes: Cholinergic urticaria is a type of hives. It is a skin rash brought on by a hypersensitive reaction to ones own body heat. It can also be due to sweating such as from exercise, heat from the sun, saunas, hot showers, spicy foods which may cause an increase in body temperature or even stress due to blushing or anger.
