How Can Profuse Sweating After Physical Exertion Be Treated?
I sweat profusely whenever engaged in strenuous physical activity which is just about daily. I am athletic with great blood pressure wt. bmi post-menopausal (on min estro/prog) & taking thyroid meds The sweating is after about 30mins of heart rate activity and is excessive & doesn’t stop for another 30 mins. I’ve measure my heart rate and it never goes into a danger zone.

Hi,
It is normal to have sweating right after heavy exercise. You can get check your blood pressure and serum TSH estimation for primary work up. Kindly mention whether you have hyperthyroidism or hypothyroidism. In hyperthyroid state excess sweating can occur. You should get investigated with EKG as well to rule out any cardiac cause if present.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
