All my effort to fight my hairloss are ruined because...

Francois · Oct 11, 2008

My minoxidil/propecia/nizoral treatments are working extremely well, but I am having a hyperhidrosis problem that started 1-2 years ago (I am 22), on my head, my arms pit (controlled with a strong anti-perspirant) and my back (more annoying that the hairs sometime). It seems to be worst since I started minoxidil in july. Everytime I make a little effort, like walking from my house to the bus stop (50-100 meters), my hair get partly wet and it looks terrible until I sit down and do nothing for 1 hour atleast (then it starts again once I start to move up

). hairloss+wet hairs= awful and no, I don't want to shave that would be even worst in my case (the perspiration would alway go in my face) so don't suggest that. Anyone know any product/treatment for this situation?

wow dude, im having the same problem
i feel that all my efforts are ruined because my sweating problem around the face is accompanied by a feeling that my face is on fire whenever something goes on where i feel slightly uncomfortable or slightly worried.

im pretty sure its androgens being brought directly to my face region, causing sweat, which is way too close to my hairline. im pretty positive that its destroying any progress i make and accelerating my rate as well.

i was going to start this topic a few weeks ago actually. it absolutely depresses me that im having trouble getting this under control.

Hey guys. I'm not a doctor so I dunno if this is normal or not, but just for curiosity, whats your BMI?

Nice to see that I am not alone in that ship of shittyness

. Seems like it could be genetic from what i read ( my father got the same problem on his arm pit and his torso), because my bmi (to answer debris) is at 25 ( about 180pounds 5'11). Anyway, I will try to see a doctor and get checked (in case it's another problem).
