Causes of Hyperhidrosis
Hyperhidrosis can arise from various factors, including underlying health conditions or may occur without any identifiable cause. The symptoms are primarily due to the overactivity of specific sweat glands, with episodes often triggered by social interactions or physical stress. When the body temperature rises, the nervous system activates the sweat glands as a natural cooling mechanism.
In some cases, hyperhidrosis may be associated with hormonal changes, such as those experienced during menopause, where night sweats can occur as the nighttime equivalent of hot flashes.
The condition is most prevalent in areas with a high concentration of sweat glands, such as the hands, feet, armpits, and groin.
