What Causes Excessive Sweating At Night?

I am a 58 yr. old female tha t has been post menopausal for 3 yrs. but have hx of night sweats in the form of cold sweatsfor well over13 yrs. originally I had a physician that treated them with a drug named belamine s but it was eventually taken off the market. Since then I have tried numerous OTC s and in the last 3 yrs have used hormone replacement none of which worked . I wake up at least 2-3 times a night soaking wet,have to change PJs trying to warm up and get back to sleep. have noted on some occasions a tachy-arrythemia that eventually subsides. due you have any suggestions for me?

Hi, Welcome to Health care magic forum.
You are a woman of menopause since 3 years, it appears that you are pre menopausal since 10 years before that.
I advise you to consult an endocrinologist for diagnosis and treatment.Harmon implants may be help full for you.
You get the hemoglobin and hypertension checked, it also may cause the failure of treatment.
Take more of green leafy vegetables, pulses, sprouts,and protein rich foods.
Wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.
