Can Excess Sweating Be A Symptom Of Having Thyroid ?
ok I have Thyroid disease and parathyroid problems I have noticed that in the last 5 years I have started this sweating thing, any time I do any physical movements like at work or at home working I start this profuse sweating, my level was just checked and my thyroid meds were adjusted, people say it menopause but my california hormone test came back normal and that I m post menopausol, so cant explain the sweating thing, I work in a nursing home and I m soaked with sweat after about an hour of work, could it be my heart? or anxiety? I m embarssed and worried about this. Diane

post menopausal conditions and hyper thyroid conditions are both raise b m r and body temp and excessive sweating along with it
use of cotton clothes and that should be airy and loose fitting to reduce the sweating
you can consult gynecologist regarding h r t in post menopausal conditions and that may help you
to maintain good health you should take regular exercises and balanced healthy diets with plenty of fluids
