ELI5- how does weight impact sweat?

319 views

What about being overweight causes the sweat glands to over produce?

Edit- thank you for the answers! Another question- what causes people to sweat more or less genetics wise? Like people who have hyperhidrosis so their weight isn’t really as relevant (thin people with hyperhidrosis still sweat excessively). So, what causes the overproduction in this case?

It’s called Thermoregulatory Fear of Harm Mood Disorder.

You might have a thermoregulatory disorder since birth that causes your body to overheat easily some medications and body cooling routines can really help. You don’t have to just tolerate this condition it’s treatable.
