I have been dealing with hyperhidrosis as long as I can remember. I came across this natural remedy and it works like a charm. I can wear clothes that I've never been able to wear before. I take the following supplements daily... Sage Astragulus St. Johns Wort Valerian Root Taking these every day has improved my problem dramatically!!!

I'm suddenly suffering from excessive smelly sweating from my right armpit. I'm guessing it's related to perimenopause as I had a similar problem in my early teens that went away on its own. I'm unemployed right now if not I would get it botoxed.

I was diagnosed with Hyperhidrosis some years back. My excessive sweating is isolated to my face and head. In the past I have taken medication for it but it wasn't 100%. My only other options were botox injections or surgery which I didn't pursue. Any suggestion as to any other ways that it might be treated.
