Sweaty Feet At Night. History Of Steroid Intake. All Tests Normal. Advice

Hi. My boyfriend has recently started sweating at night and it smells like sweaty feet. The first time I noticed this was almost a year ago and I discovered that he was trying steroids. He stopped using and the smell disappeared. Almost 6 months ago it came back. This time he wasn't using and he went to the Dr and had many levels tested and they all came back normal. Now here we are again and I have no idea what it could be. None of the other symptoms of steroid use are showing and he says he isn't using. Any advice is greatly appreciated!
