Hi Mintrofet.

When I have a hot flash I feel like I'm cooking from the inside out,my hands and face turn bright red and I start sweating profusely,mostly in my chest area and the back and top of my head.It makes me want to tear all my clothes off to cool down.I get anxiety and heart palpitations with them too and then after a couple of minutes it all goes away and then I usually get cold chills.Hot flashes can be experienced in different ways though.

Although you have missed 3 periods it's possible they could start up again.Before mine completely stopped at age 45,they were very erratic,I would skip them for awhile,then have them every 2 weeks for awhile,skip one here and there,there was no rhyme or reason to them,sometimes light,sometimes flooding,sometimes just spotting.Then they just completely stopped.My hot flashes have been worse since then actually.

You could also be one of the lucky ones that just have them stop altogether,but don't get your hopes up on that.I was so uncomfortable during all of it that I hoped for periods because they brought relief from all the symptoms.
