Hello,
Night sweats can be due to many things, including diabetes, but also various types of infections, cancers, menopause, hyperthyroid state, other hormonal disorders medications side effects etc.
Specifically in diabetes, it is often a reflection of having low blood sugars during the night.
Speak to your primary doctor about this as soon as possible.
