Hot flashes

So almost every day I get hot flashes here and there. Anyone know if this is due to estrogen high? Or low? Or the testosterone itself? And don't ask me for numbers as I haven't had labs done but will be due for some next month.
 
I would also like some insight on this issue. I've always run on the hotter side, but since TRT I've gone through lots of periods of hot flashes. It's gotten a little better, but I still generally run on the hotter side and overheat easily into a sweat. My E2 is within the range (sensitive test), so I'm not sure where mine is coming from.

Understanding Your Hormones

Estradiol (E2)

A form of estrogen produced from testosterone. Important for bone health, mood, and libido. Too high can cause side effects; too low can affect well-being.

DHT

Dihydrotestosterone is a potent androgen derived from testosterone. Affects hair growth, prostate health, and masculinization effects.

Free Testosterone

The biologically active form of testosterone not bound to proteins. Directly available for cellular uptake and biological effects.
