What Causes Hot Sweats During Winter Season?

HI. I am 90 years old, female, and physically well. However, all winter I have been having these horrible cold/hot sweats which make me very uncomfortable. Sometimes I even shiver but then sweat and feel warm too. I guess it is just old age, or maybe anxiety but I do not know why? If you have an answer, I would appreciate it. Thank you.
