Waking up sweaty

I am on a med that can occasionally cause me to run really hot, and I’ll get bad night sweats. I shower in the evenings since I work out after work, and I’ll be so sweaty that I’ll have to shower when I wake up.

When it happens, occasionally it will be my arms and armpits, but it will always be my legs. It will feel like I’m fresh out of a sauna! I only sleep with a flat sheet and a quilt.

Does anyone have any ideas of how to prevent this? I don’t want to slather deodorant all over my body each night lol
