  https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/hyperhidrosis/symptoms-causes/syc-20367152

  Hyperhidrosis is excessive sweating that’s not always related to heat or exercise. […] Heavy sweating can disrupt your day and cause social anxiety and embarrassment. […] Sometimes an underlying condition may be found and treated. […] Primary hyperhidrosis is caused by faulty nerve signals that trigger eccrine sweat glands to become overactive. It usually affects the palms, soles, underarms and sometimes the face. […] There is no medical cause for this type of hyperhidrosis. It can run in families. […] Secondary hyperhidrosis is caused by an underlying medical condition or by taking certain medications, such as pain relievers, antidepressants, and some diabetes and hormonal medications. […] Conditions that might cause it include: Diabetes, Menopause hot flashes, Thyroid problems, Some types of cancer, Nervous system disorders, Infections.

• #2 Hyperhidrosis: Types, Causes, Symptoms & Treatment

  https://my.clevelandclinic.org/health/diseases/17113-hyperhidrosis

  Hyperhidrosis is the result of your sweat glands overworking. […] Overactive sweat glands cause hyperhidrosis. Your eccrine glands (sweat glands) create sweat to cool down your body when you get hot. This process activates when you exercise or if you’re nervous. If you have hyperhidrosis, your eccrine glands activate and produce sweat more often than when your body is too hot. You may experience sweating at random times of the day when there isn’t something like an activity or emotion causing your glands to produce sweat. Research is ongoing to learn more about why your glands make too much sweat. […] Hyperhidrosis (generalized) could be a sign of an underlying medical condition including but not limited to: Acromegaly, An infection (tuberculosis), Anxiety, Cancer, Diabetes, Heart disease or heart failure, Hyperthyroidism, Menopause, Obesity, Parkinson’s disease. […] Yes, you may be more at risk of hyperhidrosis, specifically focal hyperhidrosis, if someone in your biological family has the condition. Research indicates that a hereditary genetic mutation or change to your DNA could cause hyperhidrosis.

  Hyperhidrosis can be divided into 2 types, depending on whether an obvious cause can be identified. These are known as primary and secondary hyperhidrosis. […] In many cases, hyperhidrosis has no obvious cause and is thought to be the result of a problem with the part of the nervous system that controls sweating. This is known as primary hyperhidrosis. […] Hyperhidrosis that does have an identifiable cause is known as secondary hyperhidrosis. This can have many different triggers, including: pregnancy or the menopause, anxiety, certain medications, low blood sugar (hypoglycaemia), an overactive thyroid gland (hyperthyroidism), infections. […] Although its not clear why it develops, its thought to be the result of a problem with part of the nervous system called the sympathetic nervous system, and its possible your genes may also play a role.

• #4 Hyperhidrosis: Causes

  https://www.aad.org/public/diseases/a-z/hyperhidrosis-causes

  Hyperhidrosis is a treatable medical condition that makes people sweat excessively. They sweat more than is needed to cool their body. […] The cause depends on the type of hyperhidrosis you have. There are two types of hyperhidrosis: Primary hyperhidrosis and Secondary hyperhidrosis. […] Its believed that this type of excessive sweating is caused by faulty signals coming from certain nerves, which tell the body when to sweat. Its possible that these nerves over-react, which leads to excessive sweating. […] If youve been diagnosed with secondary hyperhidrosis, the excessive sweating is usually due to one of the following: A medication youre taking or Another medical condition you have. […] Medical conditions that can cause hyperhidrosis include diabetes, Parkinsons disease, and rheumatoid arthritis. Heart failure and stroke can also cause secondary hyperhidrosis, as can menopause.

  Hyperhidrosis is classified into 2 types, based on whether the reason behind the condition can be found. The 2 types are primary hyperhidrosis or secondary hyperhidrosis and these are described in more detail below. […] Primary hyperhidrosis is the term used when no obvious identifiable cause for the excessive sweating can be identified. The condition is thought to be caused by an issue in the sympathetic nervous system (SNS), which regulates sweating. In this case, it is possible that there may be a genetic element to the condition. […] It is possible that a hereditary element involving genetic mutation may be the cause of primary hyperhidrosis, since it appears to run in some families. When genetic mutation occurs, the instructions in the cells that control the normal body function become scrambled, resulting in disruption of the body’s usual workings.

• #6 The etiology, diagnosis, and management of hyperhidrosis: A comprehensive review: Etiology and clinical work-up – PubMed

  https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/30710604/

  Hyperhidrosis (HH) is a dermatologic disorder defined by sweat production exceeding thermoregulatory needs. […] The etiology of HH may stem from a complex autonomic nervous system dysfunction, resulting in neurogenic overactivity of otherwise normal eccrine sweat glands. […] Alternatively, HH may be a result of aberrant central control of emotions. […] This condition is categorized as primary or secondary HH. […] Secondary causes of HH need to be excluded before diagnosing primary HH.

• #7 Hyperhidrosis: Management Options | AAFP

  https://www.aafp.org/pubs/afp/issues/2018/0601/p729.html

  Hyperhidrosis is excessive sweating that affects patients’ quality of life, resulting in social and work impairment and emotional distress. Primary hyperhidrosis is bilaterally symmetric, focal, excessive sweating of the axillae, palms, soles, or craniofacial region not caused by other underlying conditions. Secondary hyperhidrosis may be focal or generalized, and is caused by an underlying medical condition or medication use. […] The cause of primary hyperhidrosis is not well understood. Eccrine sweat glands distributed throughout the body, but heavily concentrated on the palms, soles, axillae, and face are innervated by postganglionic autonomic nerve fibers and stimulated by the neurotransmitter acetylcholine. It is thought that increased or aberrant sympathetic stimulation of the eccrine sweat glands is responsible for the increased sweating rather than an increased number or size of the glands. […] Persons with primary hyperhidrosis have a higher-than-normal basal level of sweat production and an increased response to normal stimuli, such as emotional or physical stress.

  https://www.webmd.com/skin-problems-and-treatments/hyperhidrosis-causes-11

  Hyperhidrosis happens when your sweat glands stay on even when you don’t need sweat to cool you down. […] The causes of hyperhidrosis depend on the type of sweating thats happening. […] In some cases, doctors dont know why people sweat too much. In other cases, the causes of hyperhidrosis may be a medical condition. […] People with primary hyperhidrosis generally sweat from a certain type of gland called eccrine sweat glands. […] Doctors aren’t sure why people have primary hyperhidrosis, although it may be related to the genes you carry. […] Why does it happen? Experts aren’t sure, but primary focal hyperhidrosis seems to stem from a minor malfunction in the sympathetic nervous system. […] This less common form of hyperhidrosis causes sweating all over the body not just on the hands or feet.

[…] Secondary hyperhidrosis can have a number of different triggers, including: pregnancy, the menopause when a womans monthly periods stop, anxiety, low blood sugar (hypoglycaemia), an overactive thyroid gland (hyperthyroidism), obesity, certain medications including some antidepressants, propranolol, pilocarpine, and bethanechol, being drunk or high on drugs, or withdrawing from alcohol or drugs if you have become addicted to them, some infections, such as tuberculosis and HIV, Parkinsons disease, disorders of the blood cells or bone marrow, such as Hodgkin lymphoma.

• #11 Hyperhidrosis: Symptoms, Causes, Treatment

  https://www.health.com/condition/hyperhidrosis-overview

  Hyperhidrosis is the medical term for excessive sweating. The condition can begin in childhood, adolescence, or as an adult. For many people, excessive sweating runs in the family, and problems with sweat are an everyday, normal occurrence. […] Others may notice excess sweat began after taking medication or being diagnosed with a disease like diabetes. However, because hyperhidrosis can affect people physically and psychologically and drastically affect one’s confidence, treatment can improve your quality of life. […] There are two types of hyperhidrosis, primary and secondary, which are diagnosed based on the cause of excessive sweating.

• #12 Is Hyperhidrosis Genetic? | The Center for Hyperhidrosis

  https://www.hyperhidrosiscumc.com/is-hyperhidrosis-genetic/

  There have been a number of studies on the origins and causes of hyperhidrosis, however, it is not entirely clear or certain where this condition stems from directly. There is sufficient evidence that the condition is hereditary though. […] So yes, hyperhidrosis is thought to be a reflection of inherited genetic traits. So if you have a parent with hyperhidrosis, the odds are higher that you will too. Researchers even believe that hyperhidrosis is a dominant trait, increasing the chances that it will be inherited. […] Statistically speaking, it is estimated that between 35-55% of people with hyperhidrosis have at least one family member that also has the condition. Some studies even suggest that hyperhidrosis can be passed down through generations. […] This form of hyperhidrosis is influenced by genetic makeup. Symptoms typically begin in childhood or puberty and may persist throughout the persons life if untreated.

• #13 Primary and Secondary Hyperhidrosis: Causes

  https://www.verywellhealth.com/hyperhidrosis-causes-4777757

  A common cause of secondary hyperhidrosis is extra body weight and obesity. This is likely due to body heat becoming trapped by adipose tissue, kicking off the body’s natural cooling response, and causing excessive perspiration. […] Several factors related to normal cardiovascular function overlap with hyperhidrosis. The same mechanism that triggers sweating in hyperhidrosis causes an increase in heart rate and blood pressure. […] The sympathetic nervous system, which activates the fight-or-flight response, plays a role in hyperhidrosis. The fight-or-flight response causes an increase in heart rate and blood pressure, which leads to excessive sweating. […] In primary focal hyperhidrosis, sweating usually starts during childhood, which suggests it may be genetic. […] The study authors noted primary focal hyperhidrosis appears to have an autosomal dominant pattern, meaning only one copy of the gene for the disease is required for it to manifest.

[…] Medications used to treat dementia or Parkinson disease include: Acetylcholinesterase inhibitors, such as donepezil or benztropine. These increase sweating through direct stimulation of receptors in sweat glands. […] Pain relief medications that can cause hyperhidrosis include: Opioids, such as morphine, oxycodone, fentanyl, and tramadol; Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medications (NSAIDs), such as celecoxib and naproxen.

  Antimicrobial medications and antibiotics that can cause hyperhidrosis include: Cephalosporins (eg, ceftriaxone or cefuroxime); Quinolone antibiotics (eg, ciprofloxacin); Antivirals (aciclovir or ribavirin). […] Medications that can affect endocrine function and thus cause hyperhidrosis can include: Systemic corticosteroids; Thyroid medications; Diabetic medications such as glipizide and insulin. […] Withdrawal from non-prescription drugs such as alcohol and caffeine can also cause generalised hyperhidrosis. […] Drug-induced hyperhidrosis is diagnosed clinically. Other causes of secondary hyperhidrosis should be excluded, such as an underlying infection, malignancy, neurological, or endocrine conditions. […] A temporal relationship between initiation of a certain medication and onset of symptoms with no other apparent cause of secondary hyperhidrosis is suggestive of drug-induced hyperhidrosis. […] When suspicious of drug-induced hyperhidrosis, the possible culprit medication should be stopped completely as a trial. […] Drug-induced hyperhidrosis resolves when the causative medication is stopped.

  Hyperhidrosis is a condition that leads to excessive sweating that is not associated with exercising or heat. […] There are two types of hyperhidrosis conditions, primary and secondary. While the causes of the former are not yet known and often attributed to genes, the underlying causes of the latter may include thyroid, diabetes, and heart attack. […] Primary focal Hyperhidrosis does not occur due to any significant underlying disease. A hereditary component might be responsible for this condition. This type of Hyperhidrosis occurs due to the overactivity of nerves that signal your sweat glands. […] Secondary Hyperhidrosis occurs when there is an underlying medical condition. It is uncommon and more likely to affect your entire body. The medical conditions are as follows: Diabetes, Low blood sugar (Hypoglycaemia), Menopausal hot flashes, Some types of cancer, Thyroid problems, Heart attack, Disorders of the nervous system.

  https://www.uptodate.com/contents/primary-focal-hyperhidrosis

  Hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating) is a common condition rarely due to significant underlying pathology that may have serious social, emotional, and professional consequences. […] Hyperhidrosis is the secretion of sweat in amounts greater than physiologically needed for thermoregulation. It is most commonly a chronic idiopathic (primary) condition; however, secondary medical conditions or medications should be excluded. […] Idiopathic hyperhidrosis localized to certain areas of the body is called primary focal hyperhidrosis. Primary focal hyperhidrosis usually affects the axillae, palms, and soles. The condition may also affect other sites, such as the face, scalp, inguinal, and inframammary areas. […] A consensus panel suggested the following diagnostic criteria for primary focal hyperhidrosis: Focal, visible, excessive sweating of at least six months duration without apparent cause.

  Essential hyperhidrosis is a dermatologic and neurologic disorder characterized by excessive sweating of the eccrine sweat glands. […] Hyperhidrosis beginning later in life should prompt a search for secondary causes such as systemic diseases, adverse effects of medication use, or metabolic disorders. […] Excessive sweating may be primary (idiopathic) or secondary to medication or disease. Secondary causes include endocrine diseases such as diabetes mellitus, hyperthyroidism, and hyperpituitarism. In one series, one third of cases were neurologic in origin, including peripheral nerve injury, Parkinson disease, reflex sympathetic dystrophy, spinal injury, and Arnold-Chiari malformation. Additional causes to consider include pheochromocytoma, respiratory disease, and psychiatric disease.

  Hyperhidrosis can be categorized as either primary or secondary. This distinction is important because treatment and management may significantly differ between the two groups. The etiology of primary hyperhidrosis remains unknown despite multiple literature reviews. Genetic factors are believed to play a role in excessive neural stimulation, although this is poorly understood. […] Secondary causes are usually easier to identify because they are associated with medications such as dopamine agonists, selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), antipsychotics, and insulin; systemic disorders such as diabetes mellitus, hyperthyroidism, Parkinson disease, and other neurologic disorders; and tumors such as pheochromocytoma and lymphoma. […] Almost any febrile illness can cause hyperhidrosis. Chronic excessive alcohol consumption and tuberculosis are also associated with hyperhidrosis. Developing segmental or localized hyperhidrosis is rare. The condition can present on some adults’ forehead, axilla, palm, feet, or forearm. Some postmenopausal women develop moderate to severe hyperhidrosis around their face and scalp. Unilateral hyperhidrosis tends to be more common on the right side of the face or arm, with anhidrosis on the left side.
