Night Sweats Stress

There are many possible causes of night sweats and stress is one of them. The type of sweating that result from stress is generally the result of hot flashes brought on by anxiety or possibly a psychological disorder. Night sweats caused by medical disorders are often brought on because of the high level of anxiety associated with the disorder.

Stress is present in many facets of our lives, and it can affect how well we sleep during the night. When your mind is burdened with worry, your adrenal glands produce increased amounts of specific hormones like glucocorticoids to prepare for the anticipated stressful event, which may lead to hot flashes.

The kind of night sweats stress induces should be addressed psychologically as well as medically. To find effective help it is vital to address the stress and find a way to reduce it or better manage it. If you don’t find a way to handle the stress it can create an unhealthy cycle of poor sleep and increased stress.

Causes of Excessive Sweating

by Joan

The causes of excessive sweating vary wildly, but you’ll always find one thing in common: they all have a trigger. With a little research, I discovered how the various causes of excessive sweating are often related to each other. Unfortunately, you may find many of the triggers of excessive sweating difficult to manage, which compounds the challenge for physicians attempting to help their patients.

I hope my list will provide a sound foundation for your research into this uncomfortable and frustrating physical phenomenon, but I encourage you to study further as well.

Adolescents are inclined to perspire a good deal. The reason might be psychological, because they’re confronting changes in their bodies and are being exposed to things which inaugurate them to adulthood. Simply put, teens in their pubescence stages tend to be more sweaty than those who are older or younger.

Surgery for Sweating Video

by Joan

Here’s a video on surgery for sweating by the Mayo Clinic. Digging through Youtube for legitimate content can be a real pain these days. I saw this video on excessive sweating by the Mayo Clinic (so you know it’s legitimate) a few months ago and meant to post it here but forgot.

So today I searched Youtube for this video and wow… there is a lot of junk from people trying to sell you stuff there. Which brings me to an important point.

If you’re out there putting terms related to health conditions like hyperhidrosis into various search forms, be careful with what you find. You’ll find an incredible number of people trying to sell you stuff where their motivation is to make money and not help you. I strongly suggest you always consult a professional personally before making any decisions.

I hope this simple, short video gives you a better sense of hyperhidrosis and the possible surgical procedures which might address specific cases. I always suggest less invasive methods first, but this is still an informative video as it provides some nice, direct explanations for how your central nervous system and sweat glands can get out of hand.
