Reduce hot flashes

What this outcome means

Hot flashes are sudden waves of heat, often with flushing or sweating, that sweep over you and are most familiar around menopause. On DoseRank it maps to a defined health outcome built from human studies on hot flash frequency, episode severity, and night-sweat counts – data sourced from open sources and specialized resources. DoseRank is not medical advice.
