Hello,

Thanks for sharing your health concern with us.

I have gone through your query and would like to offer some suggestions.

Also, please upload the reports.

The possible causes for the night sweats-
hormone disorders, anxiety, uncomfortable sleeping conditions, infection, hypoglycemia, use of certain medications like antidepressants, an approaching menopause, lymphomas etc.

Make your sleeping atmosphere comfortable, use comfortable clothing, avoid stress, do exercise regularly, take adequate liquids and avoid unnecessary medication.
