Members validated the frustration of excessive sweating associated with fibromyalgia, with many describing profuse sweating that begins immediately after showering or happens even when cold. Several members shared practical strategies including clinical-strength or men's deodorant, roll-on products for multiple body areas, waxing underarms to reduce odor, specialty antiperspirant lotions like Carpe, baby powder, and wearing breathable shoes like Allbirds. A recurring theme was that certain medications, foods like sugar and protein, coffee, and hormonal factors may worsen the sweating, with members encouraging medical consultation to explore prescription options or treatments like Botox injections for hyperhidrosis.
