Hot flashes are part of Parkinson’s for men and women. Here’s a story of one person’s struggle:

It isn't menopause. That is long gone. Maybe it is from PD med. I hate it.

Janice, I don't have night sweat since menopause has passed but as is reported in the literature about folks with PD, I do have difficulty regulating my body temperature so when I get cold, I get very cold and when I get hot, I can sweat enough to dehydrate. My friends and family just look at me when I have these issues when they are comfortable in the same environment. My doc says to keep myself well hydrated and when the temp drops, wear layers and that this is not unusual in PD.
Thanks for asking this question,
Maria

Menopause is long gone for me.
But I have been waking up drenched in sweat a few days a week. I don’t have them during the day but nights suck!
