Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) Support Group
Deep-vein thrombosis, also known as deep-venous thrombosis or DVT, is the formation of a blood clot ("thrombus") in a deep vein. It can be caused by something preventing blood from circulating or clotting normally. Join the support group if you are coping with DVT and find others who are going through the same challenges.
eHealthMe is a site that offers patient/provider feedback on drugs and here's what it says on hot flushes.

It's such a new drug and so at this time it may be hard to know, but I will say that I'm 48 and have been having hot flashes on and off for a couple of years now. While you're not in menopause, you may be in the perimenopausal phase, where hormones start to fluctuate , ovaries slow down on egg production. So it wouldn't surprise me if it were related to that, but who knows considering it seems to coincide with a medication you started taking.
So while the timing is suspicious, my gyno was not surprised since the blood supply around my ovaries had been disturbed during the partial hysterectomy. He didn't think I would make it to 59 like my mother did before becoming postmenopausal. That being said, Xarelto was certainly interested in my hot flashes and that I had become postmenopausal right after I started their product when I called them last week to ask if I could take Estroven or Peruvian Maca.
I did a search on Xarelto and hot flashes when I started having them and the only thing I found was the same thing rmp mentioned in her post.

This is from the American College of Physicians.
in my case, I tried some allergy medicines + calcium which helps with allergies too. Probably the best way is to change your medication to something else you'll tolerate better. In my case, Eliquis gave me really bad side effects, almost all described on a leaflet, allergy medicines + calcium helped with some but not all. Switching to Xarelto solved my problem almost completely. Just noise in my ears left :/ but it's a way better than it was.
Consult your doctor and don't do anything without professional consultation.
Wish you luck! :)
