A common phenomenon in pregnant women
You thought they were the prerogative of the menopause ? False ! The pregnant woman also suffers, day and night, from this sudden sensation of heat accompanied by excessive sweating. This is because the body is working at full speed. To evacuate this excess heat, the sweat glands, responsible for eliminating waste from the body, also speed up their work. Hence a greater sweating. Of course, being overweight doesn’t help.
Avoid overheating!
To control these hot spots, avoid wearing clothes that are too warm, even in winter. Choose loose clothing that allows air to circulate, as well as natural materials that wick away perspiration. Avoid confined rooms and ventilate your apartment several times a day. Finally, of course, get out for some fresh air as soon as you feel the heat kick in.
