I also get night sweats during my period so I think I retain a lot of water and shed them when I’m sleeping.

YES. Especially now that I'm older (52).

5-10 I no longer weigh myself but when I did, I can see it in the mirror. I get back rolls and then when it’s done they go away.

Yes! I’m 20:00 above and have noticed that I’m getting more night sweats and less long pees as I get older (46).

I'm the original PP of the night sweats. I'm so glad to know I'm not alone in this as none of my friends have this issue. It got really bad PP for all my kids and then just never stopped after I had my last kid. I did all the testing and they said all hormone levels are fine and I was NOT going through early menopause. I have found as well that they are worse when I've had a particularly stressful month or am anxious for some reason. During those times. I have to change shirts a couple of times through the night and sleep on a towel, and have a washcloth wiping myself throughout the night. I'm not stressed at all right now and that just means, I have a washcloth on my chest underneath my pajamas throughout the night and may change my shirt once.
