Is Excessive Sweating A Symptom Of Menopause?
I am 63, had a total hysterectomy at age 39; uterus, ovaries, the whole works. The last several months I have been experiencing sudden sweating at the least and minimal amount of exercise or any type of physical activity. I am not a person who sits much; I am on the move a lot. What this feels like is what I felt when going off of estrogen at age 50. Why do I feel as though I am going thru menopause??? thank you

I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Yes, there's is a possibility of sweating after menopause but also other possibilities like hypothyroidism or infection or anemia or beriberi etc.
Until examination is done it is difficult to say what it is.
