What causes night sweats in women when sleeping?

The hot summer is about to pass, and the cool autumn is coming. We no longer have to worry about the high temperature and can have a good rest. However, as the temperature drops, many female friends will still sweat after falling asleep at night. In severe cases, not only will their clothes get wet, but sweat will also leave traces on pillows and sheets. This is actually what we often call night sweats, and generally everyone will say that this is due to physical constitution or physical weakness. So is it really true? Let’s take a look at the causes of night sweats.

1. What is the reason why women sweat when they sleep?

1. Yin deficiency

For women who sweat while sleeping, it is very likely caused by Yin deficiency, because when there is Yin deficiency, sweating will occur, and dry mouth and tongue will also occur.

2. Deficiency of Qi and Blood

Deficiency of both Qi and blood may also cause sweating during sleep. It is best to eat more foods that can replenish Qi and blood, such as pig blood, red dates, etc.

3. Tuberculosis infection

Some tuberculosis disease problems can also easily lead to sweating during sleep. When female friends have irregular menstruation or amenorrhea, they need to pay attention.

4. Poor sleeping environment

A bad sleeping environment is also a major reason why female friends sweat at night, such as poor air circulation in the room, too high indoor temperature, poor sanitary environment, and non-breathable bedding.

5. Other diseases

Other disease reactions such as hyperthyroidism, diabetes, hypertension, endocarditis or malignant tumors such as lymphoma can also cause women to sweat at night. This is because the disease stimulates the nervous system, causing certain nerve disorders, resulting in sweating at night.

2. What should women do if they sweat while sleeping?

1. To improve the phenomenon of sweating at night, you can take a bath on time before going to bed. Do not use too hot water when bathing. Keep warm and avoid catching a cold.

2. It is very likely that you have a cold or fever and sweat while sleeping. You should go to the hospital for examination and diagnosis and receive timely treatment.

3. In normal times, you should strengthen your physical fitness by exercising for more than 30 minutes every day. Your nutrition should be comprehensive and balanced. Do not eat snacks or foods that have no nutrition. Eat regularly, do not overeat, and do not feel hungry.

4. Maintain an optimistic and happy mood. A good mood not only makes people energetic and sleep well, but also improves their disease resistance and gets rid of the problem of women sweating at night.

5. Sweating at night may also be caused by excessive internal heat. You can use prescriptions such as nourishing yin and kidney and clearing away heat to regulate it. You can choose Zhibai Dihuang Pills, Liuwei Dihuang Pills or Dabuyin Pills and other medicines. However, you must follow the doctor's instructions carefully to avoid adverse consequences.

6. For people with weak constitution, they should eat more yin-nourishing and tonic foods, such as: jujube, black beans, walnuts, black sesame seeds, glutinous rice, longan, etc.; eat more fresh fruits and vegetables, and less spicy foods.
