It can happen if you consume a lot of caffeinated products, like energy drinks or coffee. Certain medications, like some common antidepressants and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.oviahealth.com\/guide\/140\/fertility-hormone-breakdown\/\">hormonal drugs<\/a>, might be the cause of excessive sweating. It can also happen as a result of health conditions like hyperthyroidism or menopause.<\/p>\n<h3>Tips?<\/h3>\n<p>If you&#8217;ve been <a href=\"https:\/\/www.oviahealth.com\/guide\/91\/am-i-too-stressed-to-get-pregnant\/\">under a lot of stress<\/a> lately, try to take a breather now and then, and make sure you&#8217;re getting enough sleep and eating a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.oviahealth.com\/guide\/17041\/prenatal-nutrition-balancing-limited-diet\/\">balanced diet<\/a>. Monitor your caffeine consumption and try to drink more water throughout the course of the day. If you find yourself regularly having periods of excessive sweating, contact your provider. They&#8217;ll be able to rule out any underlying health conditions, as well as reduce the amount that you sweat.<\/p>\n<hr>\n<h5>Sources<\/h5>\n<ul>\n<li>Mayo Clinic Staff. &#8220;Excessive sweating: Causes.&#8221; <em>MayoClinic.<\/em> Mayo Foundation for Medical Education and Research, Oct 2015.
