Hello all,
I have not posted for some time. I am 43 and WAS having terrible and extreme night sweats a few months ago. I chalked it up to peri.
I went to the doctor for my physical. I have a large submucousal fibroid that has been causing my already heavy periods to get much worse.
Turns out after blood work results, that I was severely anemic.
I needed 1 shot right away and have been taking liquid iron from the health food store....as my hemo has risen, the nights sweats have gone away.
I believe that the night sweats were still peri related ..excessive bood loss due to fibroids....but it was my body trying to tell me to get to the doctor.
Glad that I did.
PS: My submucousal fibroid can be removed without hysterectomy. I am going in for day surgery in January for a hysteroscip resection (vaginal myo).
