## How to stop night sweats

Night sweats in perimenopause and menopause are often driven by shifting estrogen, which can make your body overreact to small temperature changes.

A few simple things may help take the edge off, like sleeping on breathable sheets, doing deep breathing or meditation before bed, dressing in light layers, and cutting back on caffeine, alcohol, spicy foods, or acidic foods if those seem to trigger it. Those changes can help, but at Alloy, our guidance is that for most women the most effective treatment is menopausal hormone therapy, because it helps replace the estrogen that’s no longer stable.

One option here at Alloy is [Evamist estradiol spray](https://www.myalloy.com/solutions/evamist), an FDA-approved, bioidentical estrogen spray used once daily. Results vary, but 95% of Alloy customers taking HRT feel symptom relief in 2 weeks or less. You can also read more about menopause-related night sweats on our [night sweats symptom page](https://www.myalloy.com/symptoms/night-sweats) and this short article, [In the Heat of the Night...
