Can High BP Cause Hot Flushes?
Can high blood pressure affect hot flashes? I am on a hormone therapy treatment for the flashes and it was under control. I have noticed recently a few more flashes. I went to a clinic recently for a virus and my BP was 140/92 - which I know is high.

Hi welcome to HCM.
High blood pressure is rarely associated with any hot flushes.The hot flushes are predominantly due to Estrogen deficiency.Hormonal therapy offers excellent response to these flushes.Regular exercise can offer better results.Maintain Blood pressure below 130/90.
thank you
