Damp Mattress
When night sweats are extreme, excess perspiration may soak through pajamas and bedding and cause dampness in the mattress. People experiencing night sweats may be woken up by the uncomfortable sensation of sleeping on a wet bed. Beyond discomfort, prolonged wetness may also damage mattresses.
Using quick-drying bedding instead of cotton sheets may help protect mattresses. Another suggestion is to layer bedding for easy body temperature adjustment through the night.
