Why am I so hot all the time?

I am a little over 8 months post-op and I stay hot all the time. I thought that after losing 118 lbs. that I would finally cool off, but that just hasn't happened. I know that fat stores estrogen and when you lose weight you start to lose the estrogen (I will be 50 next week) but I had a complete hysterectomy four and half years ago. Shouldn't all of my estrogen be gone? I do not take hormones, we haven't been able to find any that I can take, they all give me migraines...I am also afraid of them because they say that they can cause breast cancer.
