  • Do regular exercise and physical activity to minimize hot flushes and improve sleep. Aerobics, yoga, and activities like tai chi may help in relaxing the body and mind.
  • Try to wear loose clothes before going to bed and sleep in a cool, well-ventilated room. Doing this can prevent symptoms of hot flushes and night sweats. Take minimum sleep of 8 hours.
  • Avoid or limit intake of caffeine-containing beverages, alcohol, and spicy food, as these are known triggering agents for hot flushes.
  • Try to be stress-free to improve your mood swings due to hormonal fluctuations.
  • Quit smoking as it will help to reduce hot flushes and your risk of developing chronic conditions like heart disease, stroke, and cancer.
