Sounds like you may have palmar hyperhidrosis (the medical term for excessive sweating of the hands). It is a genetic disorder--so you can thank your parents for this one. About 176 million people have HH, so don't feel all alone. The good news is that there are safe and effective options. Here's what you need to know:





According to the International Hyperhidrosis Society (the world's gurus of sweat at www.SweatHelp.org) you can treat palmar HH by:





1.) *Proper* use of strong anti-perspirants (deodorants just make sweat smell pretty, they don't stop it). Here's how to make APs work their best for you: apply at night before bed; apply to a totally dry skin; use a SOFT SOLID--no matter what brand you like, this form is the most effective. You can apply in the morning again if you want an extra boost.)





2.) Botox (lasts at least 6 months and insurance often pays!)





3.) Iontophoresis (once your doc coaches you, you can do it at home with your own device. Very cool.)





Lots of us use these treatments in combination. It's so important to get with a dermatologist that knows all about these options and you can craft the best treatment plan. The IHHS has a really good physician database that you can use to find a derm near you. Plus while you are there you can read all about the treatment options so you can become a guru too!





OH, if you're a teen, you should totally get the FREE book Teen Sweat 101 from the IHHS. Just send an email to support@SweatHelp.org and they will send the book out right away. This is a great way to learn about the all things sweat.





And while you are at SweatHelp.org, make sure you subscribe to their newsletter. They tell you about new developments in HH so you can be the first in line to get the best in class treatment--sometimes free! Check out their recent article about Secret Clinical Strength, for example.





Good luck!





PS: Don't ever consider ETS surgery because it often causes "comensatory sweating" which is profuse sweating on large areas of the body. In addition, surgery is not reversible--no matter what the doc tells you. Lots of people are upset about their surgery and in some countries it's actually outlawed.

Clap cornstarch or talcum powder between your palms to soak up the moisture. Or apply a 'palm antiperspirant' on your hand. Additional info on the link below.
Reply:You have hyperhidrosis. I have it too. My hands and feet sweat even when I'm not nervous or warm. My mom has it too. It's because of an overactive sweat gland. You can try electrolysis where you put a small electrical current through your hands. I tried it but I didn't like it very much and didn't notice a huge difference. There's also a surgery you can have done where they clamp a nerve in your chest that will permanently stop the sweating. I plan on having this done someday. I don't know a whole lot about it but you can search online for hyperhidrosis and it will come up. Don't worry too much about it. I always hated it during dates but my boyfriends never were bothered by it once I told them about it. I just rinse my hands a lot, it's all I can do.
