Night sweats: Night sweats are repeated episodes of extreme perspiration that may soak your nightclothes or bedding and are related to an underlying medical condition or illness. Causes include Menopause or other hormonal disturbances, medications (antidepressants, diabetes meds, hormone therapy), hyperthyroidism, anxiety disorders, autoimmune disorders. See a Dr to determine the underlying cause.

Need to examine: It is not feasible to provide a meaningful opinion without additional history, physical examination and may be some tests. If you have not lost weight, you may try reducing the temperature in your bedroom, use a fan at night and reduce the amount of covers. If you lose weight it would be prudent to see your doctor. Wish you good health!
