Try wearing sweat-proof undershirts or pajamas while you sleep, if it's not too uncomfortable for you. And how about moving the bed next to the window, and sleeping near an open window perhaps? You can leave the door open to help the air stream through the room. This might help you stop excessive sweating while you sleep.
Oh and use the sheets…[Read more]

Hi Mary-Jane, welcome to this cozy corner of the Internet. 😉
I have been in a similar situation before, and I agree, getting dumped can be especially difficult for us dealing with profuse sweating. No matter what your rational mind tells you, you'll always blame it on sweating too much…I get this, cause I've been there. :/
My advice: stop with…[Read more] -

Great, looks interesting! 🙂 I was just looking for something like this, lol. 😀

Twinkle started the topic Clinical Research in the forum Hyperhidrosis Forum 10 years, 9 months ago
I am interested in participating in clinical research because I have sweaty hands and feet along with sweaty armpits… So, considering the vast number of overactive sweat glands I'd need to block, I can't afford paying for procedures such as Botox, and I am not sure if it's worth saving for an iontophoresis machine since they would require…[Read more]

Hi Mary-Jane, I'm sorry to hear things are bad for you at the moment. 🙁 Just hang in there and I'm sure you will get better eventually. Try to focus on yourself and not on the break-up, although I understand how two months is not a long time and this will probably still hurt for a while… But I'm sure that you will not be alone for long. ;)…[Read more]

Sean M. replied to the topic Are home-made iontophoresis machines any good? in the forum Iontophoresis Forum 10 years, 9 months ago
@Twinkle
If your home made iontophoresis machine doesn't stop excessive sweating, you can always try to get a prescription from a physician – this should significantly reduce the costs of buying a pro device. Also, people are selling used iontophoresis units all the time, so that is another option if your budget is low. 😉 -

Believe it or not, but I never used iontophoresis treatments and many say that they make a decent hyperhidrosis cure. 🙂
Considering that these devices cost hundreds of dollars, I was wondering – is a home-made iontophoresis machine a good choice for a beginner? 😛 I could ask my uncle to help me in putting everything together since he's good with…[Read more] -
Twinkle replied to the topic Hidrex Iontophoresis Machines in the forum Iontophoresis Forum 10 years, 10 months ago
I googled Hidrex and apparently if used with pulsed current, it's cool for sensitive skin as well, and it can be used to treat underarm sweating along with palmar and plantar sweating. Sounds awesome… I've always thought that a iontophoresis machine is only good for sweaty palms and feet. Silly me.

Twinkle replied to the topic Have you tried Iontophoresis? DId it work for you? in the forum Iontophoresis Forum 10 years, 10 months ago
Nice to see that iontophoresis is turning out to be a hyperhidrosis cure for many. 🙂
And my story is this…
Thanks to the annoying fact that I have sweaty armpits along with sweaty hands and feet, I've always felt iontophoresis will be a huge waste of time for me. Now, the older I get, the more tiring it is to treat excessive perspiration with…[Read more] -
Sean M. replied to the topic All-purpose Antiperspirants in the forum Antiperspirants Forum 10 years, 10 months ago
I don't have a big case of plantar hyperhidrosis, but I use Odaban spray on my feet when I can't afford to wear light shoes. Normally I use the same spray to treat sweaty armpits, but yes, a lot of these antiperspirants are multi-functional. Still, I'm surprised they can even be used to prevent facial sweating – that's cool! 🙂

Ramona, you probably won't like what I have to say, but… my opinion is that a good Yoga instructor is invaluable. DVDs can hardly replace a real live class, a real live example, etc. Don't worry, everybody sweats in Yoga classes – even the people who don't have hyperhidrosis. You will not stand out that much. 😉
And yes, after a good Yoga class…[Read more]

I use Driclor Roll On for Women on my armpits and sometimes on my hands. I have no idea how it's different from Driclor for Men lol. 😆
Does baking soda really help you stop underarm sweating? I read about it but somehow it seems too easy or too good to be true. Then again, baking soda seems to be good for a lot of things… It's like some…[Read more] -
Twinkle replied to the topic Focal Hyperhidrosis in Several Locations in the forum Hyperhidrosis Forum 10 years, 10 months ago
I have this, too. Sweaty armpits AND sweaty feet AND (somewhat) sweaty hands. And I feel you – it's not easy keeping excess sweating in multiple body areas under control. Unfortunately I don't think this is all that unusual – it seems to me that many people with hyperhidrosis actually have focal hyperhidrosis in more than one specific area. It all…[Read more]

I did some Yoga in the past and I'm thinking of taking up Yoga classes again as soon as I rearrange my daily schedule.
Anyway, Yoga makes you sweat like crazy, but after that, it's pure bliss… Dry bliss. Important note though: if you have sweaty hands and feet, make sure to wear special gloves and socks. Even carry an extra pair of…[Read more] -
Sean M. replied to the topic Footwear for Hyperhidrosis in the forum Hyperhidrosis Forum 10 years, 10 months ago
Plantar hypohidrosis or not, I recommend mesh sneakers to everyone! I mean, even to my non-heavy-sweating friends in real life who dislike wearing sneakers in hot weather.
I personally don't have sweaty feet problems in particular, but I believe that mesh sneakers will also work great (even better) for those sweating a lot in that area. Many…[Read more]
