I have hot spells during my period. is that a hot flash?

Yes and no. : While we typically use "hot flash" or "hot flush" to describe the vasomotor instability if menopause or peri menopause, when you have your period, your estrogen levels fall to their lowest level. In some women this can be low enough to have "hot flushes".
