I'm 51, missed my period a month in a half ago. Came on my monthly cycle for 1 day, and after that it all started. I wake up out of my sleep feeling really hot like im going to start sweating. then it goes away and BOOM an hour in a half later it's back again. And I can not stay sleep for a full 3 hours without waking up and hard to fall back to sleep. I have taken Melatonin supplements they don't work. I have heard of women going through this, but I have not actually talked to no one going through it
