So you are looking for the best menopause clothing? You have come to the right place. Nothing can prepare you for those hot flushes and sleepless nights until they are upon you. I have a few suggestions that will help you through the symptoms of menopause, including clothing and fabrics that will not only help you stay cool, but if your skin is also dry and itchy, they will limit irritation too. The key to all of this is easy layering. Find easy clothing to pull off and put on again if necessary. So let’s dive in.
One of the most challenging side effects of the menopause is the hot flashes, particularly if they keep you awake at night. There are several things to look out for when looking for pyjamas for hot flashes. First avoid human-made fibres unless they are specifically designed to cool the skin. Look for lightweight cotton, silk or bamboo. These fabrics will also be gentler on your skin if it feels dry and itchy. There are also moisture-wicking pyjamas available. Depending on your budget, you can find high street and high-end options to choose from. Consider adding a lightweight bamboo, silk or cotton sheet to your bed too so that you can cover yourself in that if you need to.
When searching for the best menopausal clothing, consider the following elements.
If you have recently found that it is hard to shift weight from around your stomach area you are not alone. When combining this with your ever changing temperature it can be tricky. I advice you to choose garments in the fabrics mentioned but also look for designs that come in under the bust and gently skim over the tummy area. Avoid anything that sits flat to the skin because that will likely make you feel hotter, but also anything baggy that falls straight down from the bust. Otherwise it will only make you look bigger than you are.
Unless a garment is specifically designed for hot flashes, then a general rule would be to stick to natural fibres. Merino wool, bamboo, cotton and silk will all work well during hot flashes. Alternatively, look at performance sportswear with built-in features to tackle heat and moisture.
When searching for lingerie, the last thing you want to do is go for lots of padding in polyester fabrics. If possible, choose bamboo, cotton, silk or one of the specially designed bras with inserts that you can place inside the bra that is otherwise kept in the freezer.

Alternatively look at bra liners which sit inside the bra and are designed to wick moisture away from the skin.
Finally, you could look at bras designed to cool the skin.
Whichever option you choose, try to find something solely to keep you feeling comfortable.
