Is It Only Me Or Do Others Have Crazy Sweats Too? .
A myHIVteam Member asked a question 💭

When going to sleep it's my head and neck, and during the day if it's humid underarms, chest and head. Way more than anybody i see around me. I can't wear black shirts because they get soaked right away

night sweats, I found special sheets that stay cool and breathe a lot help, also cool breeze pj's the shirt top (for those who like sleeping in boxers) or the pants only make a world of difference.

Yes. They were horrible for so long. I learned that clonazepam (antianxiety drug) stops them. I'm a doctor myself but had never thought it before. The mechanisms of the drug makes sense though

Most importantly it stops them almost dead on

Not only most people who are on drugs experience that its a side effect of drugs

I'm hearing low testosterone might be causing excessive sweating.
