I think I have Hyperhidrosis...?

I've been experiencing excessive sweating for about a year or more. I sweat when it's cold or hot, right when I get out of the shower, when I wake up in the morning, anytime really. I've tried plenty of different deodorants and anti-perspirants the last one was [secret clinical strength]. Nothing worked. I'm going to go to the doctor soon but I want to know what some people have done. Wearing sweatshirts all the time isn't going to cut it anymore.


If you have had surgery for this or know someone who has and how it turned out for them?

I think I have Hyperhidrosis...?
your doctor may be puzzled with hyperhidrosis because most do not know about glands and sweat.


when I went to my doctor, she didn't really know what to do. she prescribed me Drysol, which greatly reduces sweating.





If you want the problem taken care of properly,


I suggest going to a dermatologist.
Reply:my daughter has hyperhydrosis. there is a laser procedure available( that is much better than the older surgery.) and works very well. your dr should be able to refer you to a qualified specialist if that is indeed your problem . good luck
