What causes someone to be extra sensitive to humidity that causes excessive sweating?

Question

I DO have VERY thick hair- BUT my head ALWAYS sweats more than anyone else I know. Just my head and face, when it's humid at all I am just dripping. Is there anything that can be done about it?

I know sweating is healthy...but sometimes this is just ridiculous!

My family moved away from FL because I couldn't handle the heat & humidity.

Answer 3

I have the same problem with the very thick hair and heavy perspiration in the humidity. I've never been further south than Virginia because when we visited there, I got so sick it was almost heat stroke. I would melt away in Florida.

I really don't think that anything can be done to change the way that your body handles heat. I thought I was the worst one out there but one July, I happened to be sitting across from my daughter-in-law at an outdoor gathering. I swear every ,single pore of her body had a bead of sweat on it. She glistened in the sun.
