Hi,
Welcome to ehealthforum,
Hot flashes and other symptoms that you describe could suggest chances of menopausal onset, and you should consider going ahead with getting thorough hormonal workup done to look for the underlying cause. Other causes leading to hyperhidrosis/excessive sweating could be thyroid hormone abnormality, skin conditions etc. Visit your doctor/gynecologist at the earliest for further evaluation and assistance.
Take care.
