    Yeah, in all reality, I don’t mind a little bit of cuddling, but when it comes to actually sleeping, he gets banished to his side of the bed.

    I already sweat when I get too hot while sleeping, which is funny because I am always cold. Extra body heat is guaranteed to make me sweat and I haven’t even hit the hot flash stage of perimenopause yet.

    I hope you guys find the right balance to keep you both happy 💚

      Again, that is all pretty much spot on our situation. We have elaborate heat-management rituals involving the cat, a fan, and multiple layers of blankets being tucked/shucked as needed. She is also not yet into the hot flashes.

      I’ve long presumed this is one of those PCOS-is-ridiculously-understudied issues.

      And yes, thank you! We’re both often surprised at our ability to come to mutually supportive solutions - just like real grownups! 😂
