Abstract
The effect of cognitive activity as a stimulus for vasomotor symptoms (VMS) was examined. VMS were effectively stimulated in fasting symptomatic women through a series of randomly administered neurocognitive tests with varying degrees of difficulty. VMS and blood glucose levels were continuously and objectively measured throughout. Implications will be discussed.
