What to bring to your appointment

Questions

How long does a hot flash usually last?

Most last from about thirty seconds to a few minutes, though some people have longer ones. Timing yours shows your own pattern.

What commonly triggers hot flashes?

Common triggers people notice include hot drinks or caffeine, alcohol, spicy food, stress and warm rooms. Triggers differ from person to person, which is why tracking helps.

Is my data private?

Yes. The log is saved only in this browser on this device. Nothing is uploaded, and clearing the log deletes it.

When should I talk to a doctor?

If hot flashes disrupt your sleep, work or daily life, or if you have symptoms that worry you. Effective treatments exist, and your log makes that conversation easier.

Is there an app for tracking all my symptoms?
