We’ve all experienced sweating – brought on by a stressful day, exercise, or even just being a bit too hot. However sweating in the armpits is never a pleasant experience for anyone. Sweat marks, stains and the odour associated with it, is frustrating to many people.
Hyperhidrosis is the uncontrollable overproduction of sweat, caused by overactive sweat glands, without the trigger of exercise or a rise in body temperature. Whilst hyperhidrosis can be a side effect of medication or another medical condition such as diabetes, gout or the menopause, for many people, there is just no apparent cause. Research suggests a genetic link – family members are often also affected – but the condition often begins in childhood or adolescence without warning.
However alot of people do not have hyperhidrosis and are simply disturbed by sweating in the armpits. Sweating under the arms can be troublesome for almost all people whether you work in an office and wear a shirt, presenting to people or on the go constantly. Aside from physical discomfort, the visibility of sweating to other people can create a negative self-image in both professional and social life.
Not many people realise that there are a few options for underarm sweating whether you have hyperhidrosis or not..
