What Are Night Sweats?
Waking up soaked in sweat, even when the room isn’t hot, can be confusing and uncomfortable. Night sweats are episodes of excessive sweating during sleep that go beyond just feeling warm under the covers.
Unlike regular sweating caused by heat, blankets, or pajamas, night sweats often come from something going on inside the body. This might be due to changes in hormones, infections, or more.
Common Causes of Night Sweats
There are many reasons someone might sweat at night. Some are mild and temporary, while others may need medical attention.
1. Hormonal Changes
- Menopause and perimenopause
- Low testosterone levels
- Thyroid issues (like hyperthyroidism)
2. Infections
- Tuberculosis
- HIV
- Certain bacterial infections
3. Medications
- Antidepressants
- Medications for blood sugar or hormones
- Fever-reducing drugs
4. Lifestyle Factors
- Drinking alcohol before bed
- Eating spicy food in the evening
- Heavy blankets or tight sleepwear
5. Other Health Conditions
- Anxiety or panic attacks
- Sleep disorders like sleep apnea
- Some types of cancer (though rare)

When Should You Be Concerned?
Night sweats aren’t always serious. Sometimes they’re caused by a warm room, spicy food, or a stressful day. But if they keep happening or come with other symptoms, it’s a good idea to pay closer attention.
Here are signs that mean you should speak with a doctor:
- You’ve been losing weight without trying
- You wake up drenched in sweat several nights a week
- You also have a fever or feel very tired during the day
- You notice swollen glands or feel pain in your chest or belly
- You recently started a new medication
If you check off one or more of these, don’t ignore them. These signs may point to something more serious that needs medical attention.
