Answer by Pegasus90
I found once I got my blood sugar under control (hypoglycemic), my excessive sweating (at times, mainly when under stress) went away. I notice it now if I am under stress and my blood sugar is low.
Hyperhidrosis (or excessive sweating / perspiration) is caused by underlying conditions such as hyperthyroidism, endocrine treatment for prostatic cancer, psychiatric disorders including stress & anxiety, obesity and menopause.
In secondary hyperhidrosis, the underlying condition should be treated first, which is usually done through the administration of antiestrogens (ciproterone acetate).
In people with primary hyperhidrosis or for treatment of heavy sweating in patients with secondary hyperhidrosis, not treatable otherwise, the methods adopted include antiperspirants, iontophoresis, drugs, botulinum toxin (botox), surgery and alternative remedies.
