Cancer Research UK adds: “Sweating can be a symptom of cancer or maybe due to cancer treatment. It can be very distressing. It can also be embarrassing if you are in a social situation.”
The health body explains that night sweats may result from sudden fluctuations in hormone levels triggered by the disease itself.
What’s more, with breast cancer, women may be at a greater risk of early menopause, which is characterised by hot flushes and sweats.
Certain foods, such as alcohol and caffeine may trigger sweating by dilating the blood vessels inside the skin.
Occasionally, eating spicy foods or large meals at night can also be the cause of sweating, so these are best avoided if you suffer from night sweats regularly.
