Are Hot Flashes making you hot?
Do you happen to be a middle aged woman who's having the signs of menopause such as hot flashes. Yes, that icky, burning sensation that gets through your nerves? A hot flash is just one of the many changes that occurs during menopause.

On Hot Flash and estrogen
Seen as the most common indicator of menopause, a hot flash is directly linked to estrogen. Estrogen is in charge of those red flushes in your skin. Why? This is attributed to the fact that during menopause, your estrogen level starts to go down and eventually be totally gone.
Frequency of Hot Flashes
Majority of women like you experience having hot flashes prior to or during menopause. Some women on the other hand are not presented with this kind of symptom. Typically, a hot flash persists for three to five years after its onset. Such a long time isn't it? Sadly, there's nothing that can be done, but undergoing a hormonal replacement therapy to replenish estrogen.

I have a verticial crack in my foundation,I tried flashing cement but water is still coming in.please help?
Repair all cracks and holes in the foundation or basement floor as soon as possible. Any water caught in them will expand if it freezes, enlarging the crack. If a crack reopens after it has been repaired, you may have a serious structural problem; consult an engineer.
Fill cracks with hydraulic cement, available at hardware stores. Hydraulic cement hardens in just a few minutes, even under water, and because it expands as it dries, it bonds tightly with the existing concrete. Mix the cement with cold water as the label directs-it should be the consistency of soft modeling clay.
Two part epoxy is a more permanent sealant, but it is more expensive and harder to work with. Epoxy may also be injected, but such work should be left to a professional. Good Luck!
