Dehydration
Excessive sweating may lead to dehydration since a large amount of water is lost through the skin. When the body loses more fluids through the skin than are replenished through drinking water, there is a risk of dehydration. Dehydration may cause headaches, fatigue, migraines or possibly organ failure.
People experiencing night sweats should ensure they drink water regularly throughout the day. Keeping a glass of water beside the bed to quench nighttime thirst may also help.
