Why do women sweat profusely?

What causes women to sweat excessively? Sweating itself is a way for the human body to regulate body temperature and dissipate heat. For example, sweating after labor, exercise, emotional excitement, and anxiety is very normal. What was the reason for that woman's profuse sweating?

1. What is the reason for women to sweat a lot?

Generally speaking, our body metabolizes fluid mainly in two ways. One is to excrete it through urine. There is also a way to metabolize it through sweat. So this is why I couldn't hold my urine before exercise, but I didn't feel that way after exercise. That's because we lose some of the water through sweating. Naturally, people with more developed sebaceous glands generally sweat more.

If you are sweating for no reason, you need to be careful. Some people sweat frequently due to physical weakness and excessive sweating. Generally, this situation can be changed by paying attention to rest and recuperating. But for some people it may be caused by low blood sugar. Hypoglycemia may be accompanied by sweating, but sweating does not necessarily mean hypoglycemia. Some may also be due to stressful environmental factors, causing an imbalance in adrenal hormone metabolism and causing sweating. Most of this kind of sweat is spontaneous sweat. During the menstrual period, menstrual pain is common. Severe pain may also cause traction and excessive sweating.

2. The harm of sweating in women

Sweaty feet often make cotton socks and shoe soles wet, and the soles of the feet may go off track when walking actively;

There may also be excessive sweat soaking the skin, causing it to turn white and the toes to become eroded, which often causes bacteria and germs to grow, resulting in smelly feet, tinea pedis, etc.

Armpit sweating means sweat dripping from the armpits, and clothes will always be wet with sweat. When bacteria invade and infect, the armpits may not only emit a pungent odor (i.e., underarm odor), but may also be prone to complications such as skin fungal infections.

Hyperhidrosis can also be secondary to some mental and neurological diseases, genetic metabolic diseases, endocrine disorders, tumors, drugs, etc., which is called secondary hyperhidrosis;

The onset of the disease usually starts in childhood, worsens in adolescence and persists throughout life. When the disease worsens, it not only affects the patient's work, daily life and study, but may even cause psychological disorders in the patient, making him afraid to participate in normal social media.

2. Which parts of the body are risky for women to sweat?

Sweating of the palms and soles of feet - Qi and blood deficiency

If you are anxious, excited or worried, your palms or soles of your feet will always sweat. Chinese medicine believes that this is a manifestation of spleen dysfunction, spleen and stomach dampness and heat, and blood deficiency.

Recommendation: Massage your abdomen after meals every day, first rub 30 circles in a clockwise direction, then rub 30 circles in the counterclockwise direction. In addition, you should control your appetite, avoid cold foods, and eat until you are 70% to 80% full.

Sweating on the forehead, hyperactivity of liver yang

If you sweat a lot on your forehead, Chinese medicine believes that it may be caused by hyperactivity of liver yang.

Suggestion: Try to keep calm and get angry less often, and ensure adequate sleep, otherwise it is easy to cause kidney yin deficiency and liver yang hyperactivity. Drinking chrysanthemum and wolfberry tea every day has a soothing effect on the liver.

Sweating from the nose - insufficient lung qi

If you sweat from your nose all the time, it means your lung qi is insufficient and you need to regulate your qi and blood. Western medicine believes that it is a manifestation of decreased immunity and that immunity needs to be improved.

Suggestion: The key reason for insufficient lung qi is due to the inherent cold constitution. Tap your legs with your hands every day, and gently press the upper and lower sides of your legs. Because this is where the lung meridian is distributed, tapping and stimulating can have the effect of regulating the lung meridian.

Neck sweating - endocrine imbalance

The sebaceous glands in the neck are sparse, so very few people sweat on their neck. If your neck sweats frequently, it may be related to an endocrine imbalance in your entire body.

Recommendation: It is best to go to the hospital for a comprehensive hormone test. The key to regulating endocrine system in daily life is diet and exercise, supplemented with medication when necessary; develop a good diet, eat more vegetables and fruits, high-protein foods, drink plenty of water, and replenish the water needed by the body; at the same time, participate in various sports and exercises to improve physical fitness; also have a scientific life routine and don't stay up late for a long time.
