I had night sweats on my head years ago. I'd wake up and my head was soaking wet! Do you have any bruising on your body? or itching? Janet127

Hello and welcome. What inhalers do you have? As Tilantoe said it could be a side effect. I had Fostair for a few months this year and had night head sweats while I was taking it (along with numerous other side effects) My hair and the pillow would be totally drenched.

Hi & welcome, we are none of us experts but have found ways of coping with our problems. as mentioned by Tilantoe, your problems may be a side effect of your existing meds, check the "side effects" on the info paper inside the boxes. Then make an appointment to see your GP if still unclear.

Hi Hairwet, no doubt in my mind this is menopausal, get yourself a blood test at your doctors. I suffered with this for years, hrt really does help but is time limited unless you have had a hysterectomy then of course you can stay on it. All the best. Irene x
