Hello, I will be happy to answer your query. There are numerous reasons for a person to sweat heavily.Warm temperature or strenous physical activity is most commonly associated with exceesive sweating.However you may also sweat because of high fever.It can be even be a side effect of a drug or sign of conditions such as menopause,anxiety,thyroid,diabetes,obesity,tuberculosis. However excessive daytime sweating because of no apparent reason and that disappears when you sleep is called as focal hyperhidrosis, and it isnt associated with any underlying condition. I think you should consult your physician and rule out the other causes of excessive sweating.
