Night Sweats
My general health is pretty good with no problems. I am sweating excessivly at night regardless of whether I wear warm or cool pajamas, or if I leave the fan on or not.
I am not overweight and am 38 years old, female. Could you please tell me what causes these night sweats, it is only at night, during the day I hardly sweat at all.
When I wake up, I am drenched and often change during the night. THank you
