What Causes Excessive Perspiration At Night, Dizziness And Fainting?
I am having a couple of problems that may or may not be connected. Just in the last month or less I am having early evening and at night sweating in the front of my neck and upper chest area. I have never been a person who sweats. At this stage of my life this should not be menopausal. I never had the neck sweating during my menopausal phase just extreme hot flashes. I am also having some dizzy feelings like I am going to pass out,but I don t pass out. If I m standing I will sit or lay down for fear of fainting.

Hello,
Dizziness with fainting attacks is commonly due to dehydration, hypoglycemia, hormonal problems, BP issues, menopausal phase, thyroid issues or inner ear problems.
Excessive perspiration is a common symptom in most perimenopausal or menopausal women. Menopause is a normal physiological process through which all woman have to go, stay away from anxiety or stress.
Avoid addictions if any. You can meet a gynae you my need HRT. Visit ENT, to rule out Vertigo, get audiometry test done.
Stay well hydrated, maintain a low BMI, avoid a sedentary lifestyle. Maintain blood sugar & BP.
To rule out the possibility of syncope you can have a cardiac check-up done.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
