How do you cope with persistent hot flashes?

Well when I did have them in menopause air helped and at least I didn’t pour sweat like some of my teacher friends. I’ve had a few nite sweats but nothing a fresh shirt and pillowcase can’t solve. I was more afraid of repeating the migraines I had in menopause but T God those aren’t part of it. Aches and pains I can put up with and I get urgency so I have to stay close to a bathroom . I’m alive- that’s what matters💕🙏🥰

I'm right there with you, hot flashes are the WORST! A couple things I found that've really helped my night sweats are taking a nice cool shower before bed and then keeping a stainless-steel water bottle next to my bed so my ice water stays cold all night. Hope this helps!
