I haven't had them drench me..just damp. Sorry, Erica :-(
The first step I take with different symptoms like that (and would suggest to you) is to document and assess what you're eating, and timing of meals to bedtime, and activity level to see if there is a pattern or shift that sets that in motion.

If you happen to also have very mild cold symptoms, it could be covid. I had covid (tested) and the mild cold symptoms were hardly even annoying, but the night sweats were as bad as post-pregnancy and worse than menopause, at least for me. This virus is weird and hits people differently. Night sweats aren’t on the standard list of symptoms but people post about them online and there are a few papers that point at night sweats with covid. Nobody with night sweats got very sick at all.

Same here. I'm 57 and 3 years since last cycle, so that makes me 2 years officially in menopause. Many nights I wake up damp (neckline, behind knees etc) and the top edge of the sheet is also damp. Not soaked, but damp enough to have to change pajamas. |

Yes, I think they are very common. I am probably 3 years post menopausal. I have had very few hot flashes in my life. But for years prior to stopping my cycle I had night sweats. A lot of times when I woke hot I couldn't go back to sleep. Now post menopausal I still have night sweats. I'm not drenched, just very warm. I have not been able to find a solution with fans or anything like that. No matter what I do, I will get hot in the middle of the night.
