Many people have an issue at night that can disrupt sleeping patterns.
It's something known as night sweating.
Quite a few people at some point in life will have this issue.
Learn why it happens and what to do about the problem.

For most people sweating is an issue of the mattress heating up at night.
What happens is that your body heat will gradually go into mattress and pillow that you are laying on.
When these get all the heat they can contain, your covers and body will then start heating up.
This will cause you to sweat.
This is generally why you aren't hot when falling asleep and will be sweating waking up in the middle of the night.
In order to avoid this there are a couple things that you can do.
The first thing that can be done is sleep with your room a bit cooler than normal.
You might be a bit cooler when getting into bed but eventually your body heat will make you much warmer.
This means that you can avoid waking up with too much heat.
Secondly, you can use a fan to circulate the air in the room.
This can blow away the heat from your body so that it doesn't stay around you and cause you to heat up.
Lastly, be sure to be properly hydrated.
Many times proper hydration will help you regulate your internal body temperature and remain a bit cooler.
