I am a 35 year old male. My legs only sweat at night, enough to make the sheets soaking wet. What could be causing this?

I am 34 years old and male. I have been experiencing the same nighttime shin sweats for about 5 years and the sheets are soaking in the morning quite often.

Any progress on this?

I am a 45 year old male. I have had this same problem for more than 10 years. I am a runer and a cyclist. I find that this problem gets worse when I am working out a great deal and my metabolism is high. The sheets are soaked and I awake in the night because of it. My legs sweat not only at night, but anytime my temp gets a little high. I sweat from my head and my legs.

I have found that taking a shower at night helps lower the amount of sweat. I suspect that the problem is that at night my body is spending a great deal of energy rebuilding muscles damaged during workouts (it is this rebuilding that makes us stronger). Since the legs are so vesiculated, i would think they make a very effective heat exchanger.

On the other side of things, I have read that adnormal sweating can be caused by a thyroid problem.... Sad

I know that two possible causes for night sweats are cancer or HIV, not sure about just the legs though and obviously there are more reasons, those are just the ones I know off the top of my head. Night sweats usually indicate a more serious problem.

so...is there a reason for this night time leg sweating ordeal because i have the same issue and i sleep in a basement and its freezing so obviously its not environmental. and i dont run or cycle so its not exercise related. and i am NOT a male so its not a guy thing. and im 24. ill wake up in middle of the night and feel the sweat dripping off my legs.
