Night Sweats — Which Doctor Should I See?

Night sweats are excessive sweating during sleep that can soak through clothing and bedding. They differ from normal perspiration and often occur without environmental heat.

Night sweats can result from infections, hormonal changes, certain medications, cancer, hyperthyroidism, anxiety, or sleep disorders. Consult a doctor to identify the underlying cause.

Seek medical attention if night sweats persist for weeks, occur with fever or weight loss, disrupt sleep regularly, or cause significant discomfort. Early evaluation helps identify serious conditions.
