A. Estrogen deficiency. B. Changes in vaginal pH. C. Active lifestyle. D. Poor dietary intake.

Correct Answer is A

Explanation

Choice A rationale:

Estrogen deficiency is the primary cause of hot flashes and night sweats in postmenopausal women. As estrogen levels decrease, it affects the hypothalamus, which is responsible for regulating body temperature, leading to these symptoms.

Choice B rationale:

Changes in vaginal pH occur during menopause due to estrogen deficiency, but this is not the primary cause of hot flashes and night sweats.

Choice C rationale:

An active lifestyle can help manage symptoms of menopause, but it is not the primary cause of hot flashes and night sweats.

Choice D rationale:

Poor dietary intake can exacerbate symptoms of menopause, but it is not the primary cause of hot flashes and night sweats.
