Hi, welcome to my blog!
I started this blog to help people like me adapt their fashion styles to their sweating.
When I was a teenager, I realized I was experiencing abnormally excessive sweating (aka, dripping!). Several years later, I was diagnosed with palmar and plantar hyperhidrosis (in a nutshell, a health disorder that is due to the sweat glands hyperfunctioning).
I then spent a few years adapting my day-to-day activities and outfits to this condition and I kept trying different non-surgical therapies (lotions, iontophoresis, etc.). As these were not successful (or were even painful!), I eventually decided to get the sympathectomy surgery to get the nerve to the sweat glands cut off. Side effects of the surgery include compensatory sweating, so the sweating got distributed across other parts of my body…, which forced me to adapt my outfits and clothing selection once again!
Thus, everything I write is based on first-hand experience (get the pun? 🙂 ) in adapting my shopping habits and outfit styles to my sweating! I hope you’ll find these articles helpful!
Please don’t hesitate to contact me and tell me how your excessive sweating is impacting you and how you are adapting your daily routine to it! It’s not a disorder people talk much about, so it can feel a bit lonely at times, so it’s great to hear each other’s stories!
