Night Sweats

I am a 28 Year old healthy and active female. I have been experiencing night sweats; once or twice a week I will wake soaked in sweat.  I have been to the Doctor who sent me for blood tests which were OK...he didn't take blod presuure, temp or anything else.  Should I be concerned?  This has been going on for over 12 months.

occasional night sweats monthly not an indicator of cancer per my dr.    More a hormone changes at time or period or ovulation......not necessarily indicator of menopause either.....unless coinciding with other menopause symptoms   and more frequent the couple days a month.  per my dr.   but since it can indicate thyroid or cancer issues get yourself checked out just to be sure!!!   Since each of us is different....but i hope this eases your mind that i may be nothing more then pms symptom
