Women sweating profusely in the middle of the night

Many people have the experience of night sweats. There is no abnormality during the day, but when they go to bed at night, they will sweat all over their body, and their clothes, pants and quilts will be wet. This is the symptom of night sweats. Night sweats often occur and need to be taken seriously. From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, night sweats are also a symptom that requires immediate treatment to be relieved. Let’s take a look at what causes night sweats during sleep?

1. Women in menopause are very prone to night sweats. Because the female hormones in women in menopause continue to change, sweating can also cause excessive sweating at night. Menopausal syndrome is an important cause of night sweats in women. If the situation is very serious, you can consult a relevant doctor and seek the doctor's advice on whether to use children's growth hormone replacement therapy, which can effectively improve the symptoms of night sweats.

2. If the night sweats during sleep are caused by the difficult-to-treat hyperhidrosis, it is mainly related to the patient's own physical constitution, and the specific cause is vague. This kind of symptom will cause the patient to sweat a lot for a long time, even when sleeping at night, he will sweat frequently. In this case, the patient's health is not easily threatened, but long-term and heavy sweating will cause dehydration of the body, which requires immediate replenishment of water.

3. Many infections can also cause night sweats. For example, tuberculosis is an important symptom that causes night sweats. In addition, abscesses, endocarditis, osteomyelitis and other symptoms can also cause night sweats. If night sweats occur for unclear reasons, it is best to go to the hospital for regular maintenance treatment to determine whether it is caused by the above symptoms. AIDS patients are also prone to night sweats, so they need to pay special attention and caution to avoid symptoms of infection.

4. The most common symptom in the early stages of cancer is night sweats. Sepsis and lymphoma will cause obvious symptoms of night sweats. If the patient has night sweats, unexplained weight loss and fever before being diagnosed, then it needs to be taken seriously. It may be early-stage sepsis or lymphoma that is causing the problem, and regular maintenance treatment is needed immediately.

5. We all know that all medicines are poisonous. If you take some medicines frequently and the side effect is sweating at night, it will easily cause night sweats. For example, antidepressants can cause night sweats. According to surveys, about one-fifth of patients experience night sweats after taking anti-anxiety drugs. In addition, other drugs for treating mental illnesses may also cause night sweats. If you often experience night sweats due to taking some medications, you need to consult a doctor and stop taking the medication immediately.
