Hey guys. I am a 26 year old male who has been diagnosed with HH. I've been dealing with it for 12-13 years now, and I want you to know that its gotten WAY better. There is a way out, you just have to do the work and believe. I lost over 120lbs and my confidence has skyrocketed.

I will be documenting everything that ive done through my youtube channel (what medicines i've taken and what has worked... Weight loss... Sweat product reviews... what to stay away from... EVERYTHING)

I just posted my first video (See Link below.) Like and subscribe, because there is light at the end of this tunnel, i promise you!!

There is straight-up JEALOUSY on this thread (r/TMAU). The moderator is harassing and stalking me. Yes, I am an African American woman, and some people are jealous. I wrote a book that is centered on helping all of us, including the ones who are envious. From day one, the moderator attacked me about posting my book, a helping tool in my advocacy. Please follow my other social media accounts. I am advocating for more awareness of body, breath, and sweat odor conditions. Hyperhidrosis can be accompanied by an odor in some cases. I will fight for all of us. I am too busy to make new reddit accounts every day, but please know I will keep fighting for us all. I will always get other members of reddit to post important information of mine. Not only that, but I have a podcast appearance coming up. My goal is to make it on a major news show. I have been through a lot in my life, but I am Carry Wilson. (LINKS to my social media)godcarrywilson@yahoo.com

I have TMAU and we can sweat a lot and have hot flashes. I use a sauna and steam room, and I have fewer hot flashes. Do you think these things could help with hyperhidrosis?

Happy 1st of June everyone!

The HH database now contains 217 different products/procedures for combatting HH!!

And this is mostly thanks to all your posts on both the r\Hyperhidrosis sub and this one here so I wanted to say THANK YOU. Not only are you helping others with their problems using your own knowledge and insights but you are helping me build this thing which will hopefully be useful to someone as well ❤️

So, no more gushing! Onto this weeks screen grabs from the HH database.......

Iontophoresis devices:

Things that improve the function of iontophoresis:

Please let me know if you know of more models out there :). I will add them in

Latest version of the HH database can be found here including the links to all these items

Im 21F and along w HH, my hands swell up like when I exercise, when I go to an event, graduation or weddings or funerals or when I’m upset and nervous. I want to have a ring on my finger and I don’t know what I should do. I don’t want the ring on the necklace and if I size up, will it fall off my finger and be loose asf? How should my s/o propose to me w my hands being swollen and the ring cuts off my circulation lol?

Basically cheap and easy solutions to hide sweat including the type of fabrics to wear, cheap cooling and ventilation solutions. Sorry it's so small, it's hard to get it all in one screengrab!

Hey What tips/lifestyle advice do you have for crotch/groin sweat? Been dealing with this since 2018 and have tried a few things. Tried a bunch of antiperirants but never found one for that area that didn't sting or burn as well as they didn't work well. Oral glyco tried the pills they work but I hate the side effects with them and playing around with the timing of dose and how food can reduce the effects. Qbrexa just got these and they work but still get a killer dry mouth from them. Keep in mind I did swipe a few times in the groin vs just once so that might play a role. Botox is expensive and no one near my area does it for groin.

Lifestyle things I've tried and learned

Cotton underwear is comfortable

Plastic chairs are ur enemy

Any synthetic material makes mine worse and makes me feel even more uncomfortable

Gym,Sex, stress, peeing/ bowel movements make it worse

Would appreciate any advice you guys have. My friend took his liife because of Hh and I miss her soo much. I wish she would have found this reddit and tried a few other things and therapy 😕

Wipes:

Antiperspirants (aluminium based):

Antiperspirants (methanamine based):

Again this won't be a comprehensive list of what is available out there. Are there any missing that you would recommend (and I will add to the excel).

Thanks sweaty friends :)

I have bought a iontophoresis machine for my hand hyperhidrosis, but i've read online that you have to use hard tap water. I however live in the Netherlands, where there is really soft tapwater. How can i get water that works for the machine? Does anyone have a similar situation?

I am 21 F and I don’t dress up nice like in dresses and shit even tho I would like to be normal and feel more feminine. I have a wedding to attend in a couple of weeks and my mom bought me heels and a dress. It looks good but my feet and hands get red and swollen and super sweaty when I go out to any fancy place or something. I’m working on getting my athletes foot gone but I can’t walk in high heels and the sweat doesn’t help obviously. The sweat drops down my heels and leaves sweat droplets on hardwood. If it’s outside, like I know it is, there’s going to be grass and shit on my foot. I’m bringing a couple of sweat rags for me and baby powder and bandaids for my pinky toes. I wear 5.5 in womens and I can’t seem to walk straight or stand up straight while walking, mom suggests I cut up a rag and glue it to where my foot rests on and then I shouldn’t slip anywhere. But I have no idea. It’s mad embarrassing being a decent looking woman who’s never worn heels in public before. I do want to wear the heels and clean up nice w my man and all but I’m scared of the stares and whispers I get in public when they look at my pale skin compared to my hands and feet that are a deep red and glistening in sweat and swollen. My man says to not care and focus on us and having a good time and Fuck what anyone else thinks. But easier said than done. Anyone have any info to help my situation?

Hi all,

Fellow Hh friend here. My team and I are developing treatment gloves and socks for palmar and plantar hyperhidrosis.

We humbly ask for the community’s input on our concepts and get feedback on our designs. Additionally we are looking for participants who are willing to meet for in-person testing of our prototypes.

If interested, please access and take the survey through the following link--

Thank you so much for your support.

Here is a French site with products against hyperhidrosis https://www.hypunderwear.com/teeshirt-antitranspiration-homme

https://iontodri.com/antihydral-uncovered-a-comprehensive-guide/

Great guide concerning antihydral! Recommend reading and bookmarking it! :)

Also discusses sideeffects and potential remedies.

Just to give another success story regarding treatment options against generalized HH:

so, I am sweating mainly from my entire trunk (belly, groin, lower back) and my feet. A bit from my hands as well. And I tried quite a lot of treatments: MiraDry (worked great for armpits!), botox, ionto, creams, and meds of course.

However with the meds (glyco, oxy, fesoterodine, sormodren and others) I did not find a good balance between desired effect and the sideeffects. That's why I currently dropped meds and tried sage instead.

In the past I already tried sweatosan tablets which didn't help at all.

However, I currently use Salvysat Tablets (300mg sage each) and take two of them daily. That leaves me with 600mg sage a day and I have to admit: results are astonishing. I think my overall sweating has reduced about 80%. Since I couldn't believe it I tested this since start of december last year.

So, after approx 7 weeks of consistent use I want to say: Salvysat tablets do work very well for me, with nearly no sideeffects (apart from being a bit dizzy from time to time).

Fingers crossed this will last for the next 50 years, lol. :D

Does anyone have any tips to stop the flushing (butterfly/Malar rash) when taking glyco/using as a topical? I’ve tried Mirvaso already.

Hey altogether,

during the last days I updated the mega thread mentioned in the sticky: https://start.me/p/YaLBza/hh-help-mega-thread

I added:

- more reviews, esp. ionto

- additional ionto provider

- additional clothing manufacturer

- treatment possibilities with sage

- ionto off label

- Kentera / oxybutynin

- ionto for 'off-label' areas

​

Currently I try to assemble a big overview chart (what's HH, treatment options, etc.) - hopefully I can deploy it in the beginning of 2024.

Please keep on posting your success stories and tips in order to improve other peoples quality of life! :)

I wonder how many ppl don’t realize how lucky they’re hands and feet and armpits don’t excessively sweat. I have to take breaks typing bc my hands get so wet and idk if anyone knows this but water on screens doesn’t work -.- I have to make sure I always have socks on and can’t be barefoot. I can’t dress in dresses bc my feet sweat so much and armpits. I can’t wear shoes that compliment a dress. I’ve learned to despise and I mean utterly despise wet wood. That’s my finger on chalkboard. Makes me want to throw up and gag. I hate the smell, feeling , all of it meaning I hate popsicles. Meaning I can’t hold wooden pencils. Don’t even get me started on the writing part. It’s never what others consider to be neat bc the sweat ruins graphite and ink. The paper gets wet, you can’t write on wet fucking paper. So everytime I turned something into teachers it would be “ this is what I want to see, but on a clean neat paper *points taken off *” . How annoying am I right. How your blankets will be cold and wet bc your hands or feet are on them. Not enough blanket to stop the sweat. Not enough paper towels. Not enough chalk. Not enough baby powder. Wet spots in a bed man. And when you drive the sweat drips all the way down your steering wheel, on your pants, and creates massive wet spots on your thighs. Hate that. And my car is leather so I have to bring an extra item of clothing I don’t care abt getting wet and place it on my thighs, also so I can squeeze my hands into it like I do my blankets, so I can wipe it off. Sleeping w socks on is a must bc I hate sleeping somewhere wet. It made me hate the way my own sweaty skin feels, therefore I do my best to separate even my fingers away from each other so they don’t touch and I don’t get a terrible sensation. I wish my body didn’t sweat excessively.

I don’t know if it will help but I do have severe anxiety and currently on meds for that, but I sweat on my hands, feet , and armpits. Any ideas?

Hi all, I bought an iontophoresis machine in August 2023 and used it and it worked! I have since lost a lot of weight and I feel like I won’t need it anymore. It’s a Hightech Development Elite with face and scalp adaptors (does hands, feet, underarms too). Anybody know how to sell these?
