Dressing in layers can help, so you can remove a layer if you get hot.

I've heard of these miniature fans you can keep with you too; they are battery powered.

Good posts in this thread. Unfortunately, the caveat is that menopause is an individual thing. Some women don't even have any symptons, or they do and they are mild. Also, I didn't even know there was such a thing as PERI-menopause, and POST-menopause. I just heard of menopause until recently. So, there's 3 stages to go through, and depending on the woman, it can last up to 10 years for peri-menopause!!!!!!
I know, I have to do some research on those phases. 10 yrs...good lord...thank you!
