While catching up on other hyperhidrosis blogs, I was happy that the author of "Just a Little Sweat" (who is a classical musician) got engaged. Her boyfriend proposed during a marathon that they were running together. Best wishes to the happy couple!

Medical Journal Articles About Hyperhidrosis & Iontophoresis
Hi everyone, It has been a very long time since have blogged. It was wonderful to come back and see all the comments. A few of you mentioned that you are in medical school, so I wanted to point out a resource of special interest: PubMed. You can search for recent journal articles about hyperhidrosis. It's a great website, though unfortunately, I don't have access to many of the journal articles.
Still, it helps to scan the titles and summaries. I found a few about iontophoresis, my treatment of choice.
Here's one for young people with hyperhidrosis:
And finally...a discouraging study about the use of hyperhidrosis for underarm sweat.
Hope that helped!
Love,

Here's one for young people with hyperhidrosis:
"Tap water iontophoresis is an effective method of treatment for primary palmoplantar and axillary hyperhidrosis in paediatric patients. But there are still unanswered questions about the mechanism of action, ideal session intervals and protocols for maximum efficacy."Here is one for me -- a not-so-compliant iontophoresis patient (-:
"Patients with palmoplantar hyperhidrosis are noncompliant with TWI, mainly due to a lack of time. They should be well informed before therapy and be encouraged to have a home device for maintenance."
And finally...a discouraging study about the use of hyperhidrosis for underarm sweat.
Hope that helped!
Love,
