Zoloft and Night Sweats

Well I went off of Zoloft while I was pregnant but had to go right back on it after I had the baby bc of Post Pardum Depression and Post Partum Anxiety.  I have had an anxiety disorder since I was very young (27 now).  Before I was on 50mg but now I am on 100mg bc the 50 wasn't cutting it with the PPD.  I have only had anxiety in the past, so this was my first run in with depression.  When I was on Zoloft before I had mild night sweats, but now that I am on 100mg I wake up at night and have SOAKED the sheets!  I'm not hot though - I wake up cold bc of the sweat and the fan is on.  Does anyone else have trouble with night sweats with Zoloft or other meds?

I also had bad nightsweats while on zoloft but I was also starting to go through menopause about the same time so I think it was mainly a hormone issue.  I did start taking lecithin and it helped with the night sweats and eliminated the hot flashes also.

I've been on the 100mg for 3 months now, so I wonder if there is any hope of them getting better or fewer and farther between...

Yes, I had them on Lexapro, but they did go away fairly quickly.  Once in awhile I still get them, but very rarely.
