Hi, I have been taking Loestrin 24/7 (everyday non stop) for almost 8 years now. I had endometriosis years back and my doc put me on this full-time to stop periods. I have had NO OTHER PROBLEMS except the most horrific night sweats for the past 3 years. I wake up so completely wet and freezing. They are drenching, dibilitating, and so miserable. I have tried for years to diagnose the cause and all the doctors I have spoken to absolutley say no way is it caused from thi pill. It is not early menopause or lymphoma as I have been tested for both, there is no other explanation. I read once in a blog somewhere that it can cause night sweats! I am sorry to tell you they will probably get worse as mine have not gotten any better. It has really affected my life as sometimes just getting out of bed in the a.m. is so difficult because the air actually hurts to hit your body!
I have recently started taking one REMIFEMIN GOODNIGHTS every night at bedtime. It is a homeopathic type remedy for night sweats and menopause. Been taking it for almost 2 months and yes, they are much better but still get them not as often or as bad, but they are still happening. You may want to try that. Good Luck!
