What should menopausal middle-aged women do when they sweat at night?

After entering menopause, women will become easily irritable, impatient with everyone and everything, and prone to anger and nagging. Some women are particularly afraid of heat and sweat all over their body at any time, especially after sleeping at night. Many female friends feel very confused about this and don’t know how to solve it. Let’s learn about it together today.

1. Diet adjustment

The main reason for menopausal women to sweat excessively is yin deficiency, internal heat, hyperactivity of false yang, and lack of body fluid. Summer is the season when all kinds of soft and juicy fruits and vegetables are in abundance, such as watermelon, pear, lettuce, loofah, lily, fresh lotus root, etc. Eating them in moderation every day can nourish yin and reduce fire, promote the production of body fluid and quench thirst, and replenish the deficiency and strengthen the body. You can also cook porridge with food:

Lotus seed and lily porridge, cook 30 grams each of lotus seeds and lily rice together, and take it once in the morning and evening every day. Red bean, coix seed and red date porridge, 30 grams each of red bean, coix seed and glutinous rice, 10 red dates, cook into porridge and eat it every day. As for meat, duck meat is cold in nature and can be eaten as a stew with lily, adenophora, etc. Reduce the intake of high-fat, high-salt, and high-sugar foods, and avoid eating spicy and hot foods such as mutton, Sichuan pepper, and fennel. Spicy foods are easy to spread and increase internal heat, which will aggravate sweating symptoms.

2. Medicine and food have the same origin

For those who sweat heavily, you can take some Chinese patent medicines, such as Liuwei Dihuang Pills, Kunbao Pills, Danzhi Xiaoyao Powder, etc., or you can prepare some decoctions instead of tea, such as Ganmai Drink: 30 grams of wheat, 10 red dates, 10 grams of licorice, decocted in water, take once in the morning and evening every day. Qi and Jujube Soup: Take equal parts of wolfberry, mulberry and red dates, decocted in water and taken once in the morning and evening; or use 30 grams of Chinese yam and 100 grams of lean meat to make soup, once a day.

3. Exercise conditioning

Women who lack physical exercise, smoke, and are obese have a higher incidence of hot flashes and sweating. Strengthening necessary physical exercise, developing regular living habits, paying attention to the combination of work and rest, and strengthening physical fitness can prevent hot flashes and sweating. You can choose appropriate exercise methods and try to do it before sunrise or after sunset when the heat is reduced to avoid excessive sweating and dehydration.

4. Adjust your daily routine

Appropriately adjust the temperature and humidity of the living environment. For example, the living environment of people with yin deficiency and blood heat should be slightly cooler, and they can use some cool mats, water pillows, etc. Keep bedding, pajamas, etc. clean, dry them in the sun or wash them frequently, and take a bath frequently to reduce the irritation of sweat to the skin. Avoid staying up late.
