"hot flashes" at 18 : "Hot flashes" can occur whenever the estrogen level produced in ovaries suddenly drops, which is normally just prior to a menstrual period and right before ovulation. Ask your gyn physician about low dose oral bcp's, which have less hormones than your ovaries produce, and may decrease your "hot flashes" if taken punctually (at the same hour each day).
