Excessive sweating, also known as hyperhidrosis, can be caused by a variety of factors, including:
Overactive sweat glands: Hyperhidrosis is sometimes caused by overactive sweat glands, which produce more sweat than the body requires.
Medical conditions: Diabetes, hyperthyroidism, menopause, and nervous system disorders such as Parkinson's disease or multiple sclerosis are all examples of medical conditions that can induce hyperhidrosis.
Medications: As a side effect, some drugs, such as antidepressants and blood pressure medications, can produce excessive perspiration.
Diseases: Certain bacterial or viral illnesses, such as tuberculosis, HIV, and endocarditis, can produce excessive perspiration.
Genetics: Hyperhidrosis can run in families, implying that the disorder has a hereditary component.
Psychological factors: For certain people, emotional stress and anxiety can cause excessive perspiration.
Menopause: Hot flashes and profuse perspiration can be caused by hormonal changes during menopause.
Obesity: Being overweight increases your chances of having hyperhidrosis.
