Hi New Here from Memphis, TN w/keto night sweats

newbies

Hello, It’s Day 3, 6am and I’m up Googling Keto Night Sweats. :expressionless::grin: I’ve been on keto before about eight years ago but didn’t remember having night sweats. I’m 49 and in menopause. I’m not into natural supplements but after having terrible night sweats I began taking black cohosh before bed and went from having sheet drenching sweating to feeling just fine again.
Everything was going well on the sweat front until I began the keto. Now back to a/c at 64 in the winter, ceiling fan, floor fan, 1 sheet, and no clothing. Hopefully it will pass soon because my husband is freezing to death. Lol So glad I found this forum. :blush:
I’m using an app called a keto app which is fantastic and simple to use. I’m eating 30g of carbs/day. A normal pre-keto day consisted of approximately 250 to 350 g of carbs/sugar. I have literally lived off sugar and carbs most of my life so I figure 30g should keep me in Keto and so far so good. I’m 5ft tall with a starting weight of 155lbs (the heaviest I’ve ever been) and I have Multiple Sclerosis. Weightloss goal is to be back at 125lbs and hopefully correct my very bad Cholesterol. 30lbs has to go.
Thank you for having me :slightly_smiling_face:

Hi! I’m originally from Bartlett but live in AR now. I suspect your night sweats are your hormones adjusting. I didn’t have night sweats but my periods went crazy wonky for a while. The good news is they settled out and are now back to my normal.

Thank you for the response. It’s a small world! I lived in Bartlett growing up. I’ll send you a private message :slightly_smiling_face:

I second that, your hormones are going crazy during your transition. I am having hot flashes right now while I type lol. I’m only four days on a carnivore diet and practically at zero carbs and girl I’m dying here ! Oh and my monthly cycle well I started carnivore during it and well this is the longest cycle I’ve had so yea hormonal changes happening from Keto for sure ! Don’t give up ! I hear it gets better!
