I've never heard the term "hot flashes" used in England. I can assure you
that English people get "hot flushes" which can be of the extreme heat &
totally drenching variety! It's a matter of different countries using
different vocabulary for the same thing.

I believe some of the interpretation between the two words Flash or Flush
is
about degree, as mentioned before. Someone who flushes, does not have
night
sweats, and only gets barely warm,
I can tell you that here in Australia, the word "flash" is never used.
They are only referred to as "hot flushes" - except perhaps by younger
folk who've seen a few American movies
