Hot flushes / night sweats
Episodes of heat and sweating, often experienced during the menopausal transition; other causes also occur.
Anthony William’s proposed explanation; not an established medical cause
This department is a course in understanding, not a clinic. Nothing here is medical advice, diagnosis, or a treatment plan. If you are ill, pregnant, feeding a child, or taking medicine, speak with a clinician who knows your case. Emergency symptoms need emergency care.
William’s account
William attributes these symptoms to an overheated, burdened liver rather than menopause itself.
Medical context
Hot flushes are recognised menopausal symptoms. Persistent unexplained night sweats, fever or weight loss need assessment; medical options are available.
The medical reference explains assessment and established care options. The foods and supplements shown here record William’s approach; they do not replace that care.
