What Causes Chills Followed By Excessive Sweating And Fatigue?
I am a 54 year old female in relatively good health, average height and weight. I stopped taking hormones in September. initially I was fine, just mild flushes but now it is February and I am really struggling. One minute I am intensely cold the next I am sweating - my face my body everywhere. This occurs day and night! I am also extremely fatigued. Is it most likely menopause or could it be thyroid. I also have sinus headaches...

Hello,
Hot and cold in the quick sequence is a pointer towards menopausal symptoms. You should meet your gynecologist as you will provide (HRT) hormone replacement therapy if the symptoms are just too much for you. You may take soybean products also.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Varinder Joshi
