Facial sweating been worse than ever before! Help??

Ok, so i was once a carefree confident young lady...now i am a single mother of 2 and even though my lifestyle is quite stressful (i study full time also) it doesn't make sense how i seem to sweat excessively. Even a gentle walk, then i seem to be breaking out in a sweat. I am not unfit, i work out reguarly and am only slightly over-weight. I do get anxious when i go into shops or have to speak to people because i am aware of the facial sweating and think that everyone thinks i'm wierd coz i sweat so much. I had implanon fitted about a year ago and i'm concerned this could be aggrivating the situation as a side effect can be high blood pressure so i think may visit my doc to check my blood pressure? What do people think? Has anyone experienced sweating as a side-effect with implanon or is it my lifestyle causin the prob? Also, I will add that i always have found temp changes hard to adjust to, but over the past year or more it has worsened, i'm not sure why?

Ask your doctor for a check up - a possible solution could be beta blockers,thats a medication for high blood pressure ,


and also used sometimes for sweating / anxiety.Ask the doctor.


The medical term for this heavy sweating is hyperhidrosis.
Reply:you can treat it with botox. check with your GP first
Reply:I have no had that side effect and mostly they only tell you about the 'possible' side effects so you don't turn round and sue them when the reality is the chances of side effects are very small.


How old are you i don't want to freak you out or anything but maybe early menopause? i would always go back and double check with your doctor there is also a chance it could be a heart problem... best of luck though with whatever it may be!

I can't believe you've just told everybody that!





Take up darts love ... nobody would bat an eyelid then ;-)
Reply:I am wondering if you are approaching the menopause years?


I also sweat a lot. It can be a side effect to some medications.


When I am riding a train and it is not hot out the perspiration will be rolling down my face and back. It is gross.


I sit there fanning myself. I will think, "I am at that age, so this is normal". Other people may think that is the reason, if they even notice at all.


Do not wear heavy clothing.


Leave your coat in the car when you go indoors.


You can also carry a package of those moist cloths to help keep you cool. Best Wishes.
Reply:I have the same problem, i sweat alot all over and get sweat patches in winter, i found while taking a herbal remedy for stress, this almost stopped. I am guessing it is anxiety, that is what it sounds like, you have yourself in a vicious cycle, you say you feel nervous out and about incase people see this, that stress would make it even worse. Also some people do sweat more generally and your lifestyle does seem stressful, try and find a hobby or activity you enjoy and find relaxing, that will also help!

Reply:I've just checked the side effects of Implanon, and it doesn't mention sweating.





Are you taking antidepressants? They can often cause sweating as a side effect. I would hazard a guess and say that you may be suffering from social anxiety. One of the main symptoms is sweating, which can be profuse at times. I would suggest that you see your GP, and discuss your concerns with him/her.
