I started having hot flashes about 6 months before i was Dx with PCOS. I was taking Ortho-tri-cyclen. When my gyn found out that i had PCOS he changed my bcp to Lo-Orval. Since then I might have had one to two hotflashes and that was within the first month that i switched. You might just need to switch bcp like i did. hope this helps.
Hot Flashes? Anybody else have them? I've started to get them on a daily basis. I'm only 21--I dont want to be going through menopause already.
Describe what is happening to you that you call hot flashes........that might help us help you.

Ive had hot flashes for as long as I can remember. I will be fine one minute & sweating like crazy the next minute. My husband is always cold and he laughs at me for wearing shorts in the house in the middle of the winter. I dont wear them out in public because I dont want people thinking im nuts but I do wear whatever keeps me comfy in the house. Just about every night I wake up sweating. My husband works 3rd shift so I control the temp in the house at night. I usually set the temp on 65 and I still wake up sweating. Oh & I run a fan at night all year long. Even when its 25 degrees outside, I have a fan going in the bedroom. I guess its a good thing that my husband works 3rd shift. My mom has the same problem that I do. She ask her doctor about something to help her to not sweat so much & he laughed at her. He said nothing could control it. So I do my best to adjust. I always dread the summer though.

Sweating a lot--it is SD--winter in SD...I'm ALWAYS cold--always have at least two shirts and covered with blankets and still cold. THe past few weeks--i've stripped down to short-sleeved shirt but then cold then back to sweating. Cold showers at night. T-Shirt and Undies to bed with covers but always wake up sweating, etc. Yes, I run a fan at all times--directly at me. I am on Ortho-Tri-Lo...hmm.
