Tips against sweating on the bottom

There are a few tips that can help reduce sweating on the bottom or at least prevent unsightly sweat stains. 1. reduce overweight: Weight reduction is an effective measure to prevent sweating on the bottom. The weight loss reduces friction on the skin and thus the production of sweat.

Obesity is often the cause of heavy sweating. 2. functional underwear: Wearing functional underwear, as is customary in sports, helps prevent sweat stains and prevents an unpleasant wet feeling on the skin. 3. baby powder: A little baby powder on the skin can bind liquid and prevent sweat stains from forming on clothing.

Unfortunately, baby powder only provides short-term relief. It is especially recommended to use it before an important appointment, for example. This can prevent sweat stains from forming for a short period of time.4.

antiperspirant creams: the buttocks should not be sprayed with deodorants, as there is a risk that ingredients could also get onto mucous membranes and cause irritation. There are antiperspirant creams or solutions that can be applied directly to the skin. 5. hair removal: Especially hairy people who sweat a lot on their buttocks should think about permanent hair removal of this region.

The formation of shit is thus reduced and unpleasant odors are also less frequent. 6. light-colored pants and breathable fabrics: Sweat stains are much less visible on light-colored pants than on dark ones. Therefore light fabrics are highly recommended for people who sweat a lot. The choice of fabric also plays a role. Cotton and linen are preferable as breathable fabrics to synthetic fibers.

Causes

Heavy sweating on the buttocks is especially common among men. Nevertheless, the affected persons should be aware that this phenomenon is often a pathological hyperactivity of the sweat glands. For this reason, the cause of heavy sweating on the buttocks should be urgently investigated.

Some people tend to produce large amounts of sweat. This form of hyperhidrosis is hereditary, i.e. it is passed on to children by either the mother or the father. In hereditary hyperhidrosis, excessive sweating can be generalized as well as localized, for example on the buttocks.

In addition, diseases that lead to excessive activation of the autonomic nervous system, or more precisely the sympathetic nervous system, can stimulate sweat production and cause excessive sweating on the buttocks of those affected. In general, it can also be observed that especially persons with congenital or acquired metabolic disorders tend to sweat more on the buttocks. In this context, disorders of the blood sugar level (diabetes mellitus) and the thyroid hormones (hyperthyroidism) play a decisive role.

Even people who are very overweight often tend to develop acquired hyperhidrosis of the buttocks. Even in obese persons, heavy sweating in the buttocks area may under certain circumstances be associated with a disturbance of the hormone balance. In addition, overweight people often suffer from sleep-related respiratory regulation disorders (so-called sleep apnoea syndrome), which can cause excessive sweating of the buttocks.

Although men are much more frequently affected by heavy sweating on the buttocks, women can also develop hyperhidrosis with increasing age. The reason for this phenomenon is again hormonal disturbances such as those that occur during the menopause. Other causes for the occurrence of heavy sweating on the buttocks can be regulatory disorders of the blood pressure (high blood pressure) or circulatory problems.

However, hyperhidrosis can also occur as side effects of many drugs or can be caused by the regular consumption of alcohol, nicotine or drugs. An overview of the causes of heavy sweating on the buttocks: Overweight (obesity) excessive alcohol consumption hormonal disorders (for example during menopause or after birth) thyroid diseases (hyperthyroidism) diabetes mellitus high blood pressure (hypertension) infectious diseases such as tuberculosis, HIV, Hepatitis Tumour diseases Sleep apnoea syndrome Chronic increase in body temperature Psychological problems (e.g. anxiety disorders) Alcohol/nicotine/drug consumption In addition, heavy sweating on the buttocks can be caused by an incorrect diet, regardless of the presence of a relevant underlying disease. Especially spicy foods can temporarily stimulate sweat production and thus lead to heavy sweating on the buttocks.
