    Because of your age, it's unlikely that this is early menopause. No one on the Internet can diagnose you. You need to see a real-life doctor (gynecologist preferably) who will take your medical history, examine you, maybe run some tests, and figure out what is going on.

    You are too young for menopause. However, there are many other health concerns that are related to hot flashes, such as thyroid conditions.

    I recommend you go to your GP for a full workup.

    I agree, there may be all sorts of hormone or other illness that can cause all of this. It is past time for you to see the doctor

    Get your hormone levels checked out. Especially your thyroid hormones. Sounds like a huge imbalance somewhere.
