there can be a number of underlying cause and one that springs readily to mind is Thyrotoxicosis or hyperthyroidism. However, the only way to be sure is to go to your doctor who would take a blood test to see what your thyroid function is. Additionally, there ould e the issue of early menopause, again a blood test could look at this. I suggest nest time youare describing symptoms realting to this consider the foollowing questions, Have u been losing weight although having an increase appetite, Any change in the texture of the skin or presentation such as being oily or dry as well as any enlargement in the neck, any frequent urination especially at night, what about your menses, is it non-existent, are u feeling anxious, upset, changes in mood,feeling thirsty all the time, any palpitations, can u feel ur heart beating or racing, any changes in your eyes, such as lid lag, not being able to close ur eyes, inability to sleep at night, feeling excessively tired.
IF you answer yes to any or all of the above please see your doctor. This is important. Hope everything works out well.

Sounds like hot flashes.

Go to the doc.

maybe your just hot.
sexy hot.

Get checked for diabetes or pre-diabetic condition. Also some medications cause sweating. Check it out.

It could be blood pressure.

could be pregnant.

This could be a medical problem that you will have to talk to your doctor about. A gland in the brain called the hypothalamus starts hot flashes. It regulates temperature in the body. It is also involved in regulating the menstrual cycle.
The hypothalamus is like the body's thermostat. During a flash, the thermostat suddenly gets reset down, not up. Your body is like the house and the hot flash is like the heating/air conditioning system. So somebody suddenly turns the thermostat (hypothalamus) way down and demands a much lower temperature in the house (body). Only this heating and cooling system (hot flash) responds by opening the windows. It cools by causing heat to escape from the warm (98.8 F) house to the cooler outside world.

have you been tested for T.B>>>>>have thyroid checked as well......

hyperthyroidism?
go have a thyroid function test done (T4 and TSH levels)
