The term “hot flush” is descriptive of sudden onset of reddening of skin overhead, neck and chest accompanies by feeling of intense body heat and concluded by sometimes-profuse perspiration. The duration varies from few seconds to several minutes, rarely for an hour. Only 100 postmenopausal women and 100 premenopausal women and 100 premenopausal women were included after a detailed medical history and were selected on the basis of the following inclusion and exclusion criteria. The FBS of premenopausal group was 78.67 mg/dl and of postmenopausal group was 79.47 mg/dl. The PPBS of premenopausal was 97.3 mg/dl and of postmenopausal group was 97.25 mg/dl.
