Night sweats can be a symptom of menopause or another hormonal issue!. I've gotten them for 10 years now, ever since going through menopause at the age of 31!. This is something that needs to be checked out by the doctor!. TB and AIDS are two common causes and even if you don't think you have them, you should still be checked for those and other things that might be the cause!.

You could also have hyperthyroidism, or a problem with your endocrine glands!. Whatever the cause, this is not something to take lightly!. See a doctor!. Good luck!Www@Answer-Health@Com

It might be bad dreams!. Just turn a ceiling fan on (or if you don't have one, just turn on a regular one and aim it at your bed) and don't sleep with the covers on!. Or, if you don't like to sleep without covers, just use a really really light cover!. If it keeps on, you might want to check with your doctor just to be on the safe side!

Good luck! =]

First of all, how did you rule out TB or aids!?!? Most people rule these things out because they are afraid the answer could be "yes" !. !.!. you're doing yourself a HUGE favor if you get checked out!.

You could have a cold accompanied by a slight fever, or i know diabetics can sweat like that!. !. !.

That's definitely a good reason to see your school counselor or a professional therapist!. Nobody on Yahoo Answers can give you adequate counseling!. (I would think T!.B!. and AIDS would have more serious indicators than night sweats!. That could be part of the problem !.!.!. you're worrying too much!)Www@Answer-Health@Com

I have this off and on!.!. are you drinking caffeine during the day!? Do you smoke!? Either of these might cause the sweating!. If not, you might want to see a sleep specialist!. Good luck!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
