I also experienced this exact same thing. In the summer and most the rest of

the year I go from one air conditioned thing to another as I can't stand not

to be in air conditioning. I keep my grooming shop at 68 degrees. at 70 I am

dripping sweat. And sick to my stomach. I can;t sleep unless the air

conditioner is set at 65 degrees. I am still bad, but the addition of some

estrogen back into my body has helped alot with that. I was having continual

hot flashes and night sweats and didn;t even realize it.

, Thanks for taking the time to answer all my posts!

Not to sound inane, but how can you have hot flashes and night sweats and

not realize it?

Anyway, how can I get a hole of some estrogen to try it? I have used some

progesterone to try and get copper levels down, but it does not seem to do

anything for me.

I don't sweat though...almost not at all...but when it gets around 78

degrees or so, I feel like my brain is being microwaved (very nasty...almost

kills me)

Exactly why I've just reordered my Estradiol Rx again. Having the same problems

with hot flashes/sweats & hate the heat in the house. Have to keep the temp

around 68-70 & no higher. Also have a fan on in my open window blowing onto my

bed at night...all night long even in cold weather.

I get an upset stomach & am dead in my tracks in the hot weather outside. It

just wipes me out royally. I wore out my car air conditioner twice the past two

summers & have it on almost constantly all summer long in the house.

I just got the house heat fixed in here for the winter (pilot light was blown

out) & I've been sweating to death with it on so have to keep it off or way

low...mostly off tho.

Hey Val,

Is it best to optimize thyroid before contemplating female hormone

adjustments. Like I said, I've had the heat intolerance issue since I was

diagnosed hypothyroid - but I just turned 40 this year and wondered if we

have now wandered into the female hormone problem range.

My house is continually set at 68 degrees - no matter the time of year -

those who wander into my domain learn to bring a coat and there are blankets

sprinkled throughout my house. I love to be outside but am not usually

because I can't stand the temp in the summer - and if you add a drop of

humidity - forget about it - I'm a useless lump of flesh. Just slightly too

warm and I also feel nauseous, dizzy, and just overall yucky.

I have ceiling fans in all of the rooms of my house except bathroom and

dining room - the one over my bed runs 24/7/365 (poor husband - but he doesn

t complain) - I must also confess to those wondering about starting the

Armour - I started it last January and by this summer I could let my house

be 5 degrees warmer than the previous 14 summers. Something good was

happening to me.

I would at least get close. Hypothyroid can also cause this kind of heat

intolerance, but it is not a common as feeling cold. What is you daytime

body temperature? Sometimes when that is really low, you will have the heat

intolerance more so.

I can testify to that. When my temp was 96.5 I felt so hot that sometimes I

Cold all the time points to thyroid dysfunction, but intolerance to both

hot and cold points to adrenal exhaustion. Here's a list of symptoms for

comparison:

cold all the time is also a major sign of low ferritin. Hot all the time can be

ferritin overload

I have never experienced adrenal exhaustion, so I really can't say about

this. I have never been cold intolerant either! Just the heat killed me. If

I start sweating which I do with even moderate activity at 72 degrees, I

feel instantly exhausted. To the point I must sit down. I had it happen last

year at work alot, and not this year. The only differences being I am using

estrogen this year and alot more thyroid meds.

,

I experienced the exact same thing after making a bed (changing sheets), not

something that I ever thought of as being strenuous. I felt so ill, hot and

heart pounding that I had to lay down. I asked about this on the womens

hormones group and advised me the same as you have just said - estrogen.

I have been using estriol cream for about 10 days now and have stopped feeling

hot and I am also sleeping better.

Jamy, would men get ferritin levels checked also? The reason i'm

curious is that my hubby is always freezing. He's one of those than

can wear thermal underwear all the time! lol.

yes, anyone can have low ferritin. They have found many thyroid people and most

people as they age.

I have had heat intolerence since I was 11 years old, and I would black out

in the sun sometimes. Started periods at age 10.

By the time I was 17, heat could put me in bed.

Age 23, I would have to keep my head wet a lot to keep it cooled down.

Now, (age 48...finally menstruating thanks to thyroid supplementation) when

it hit 78-80 degrees or so, I often feel like my BRAIN is going to pop and I

will die....I ice my head a lot.
