Body Odour and Hyperhidrosis Solutions
Body Odour and Hyperhidrosis Solutions London
Body odour, often referred to as BO, is a common issue that arises when bacteria on the skin break down sweat, leading to an unpleasant scent. Sweat itself is generally odourless, but it provides a breeding ground for bacteria when it accumulates on the skin’s surface.
Causes of body odour
- Excessive sweating or hyperhidrosis: Hyperhidrosis is a medical condition characterised by excessive sweating that goes beyond what is necessary to regulate body temperature. It can significantly contribute to body odour, making effective Hyperhidrosis Treatments in London essential for many individuals.
- Exercise: Physical activity can increase sweat production, leading to body odour if proper hygiene isn’t maintained.
- Hot weather: Heat can trigger increased sweating and exacerbate odour issues.
- Hormonal changes: Fluctuations in hormones, especially during puberty or menopause, can lead to increased sweating and body odour.
- Being overweight: Excess weight can increase sweating due to a higher metabolic rate and additional body heat.
- Medical conditions such as diabetes, kidney or liver diseases: Certain health issues can lead to changes in body odour.
Certain types of medication, such as antidepressants: Some medications can cause excessive sweating as a side effect.
Understanding Hyperhidrosis in London
Hyperhidrosis can affect various parts of the body, including the underarms, palms, feet, and face. The condition can be embarrassing and significantly impact an individual’s quality of life, as it often leads to severe body odour, social discomfort, and even skin issues.
Hyperhidrosis can be classified into two main types:
- Primary hyperhidrosis: This type has no underlying medical cause and often begins during adolescence.
- Secondary hyperhidrosis: This type results from an underlying medical condition or medication side effects.
