Why do I never sweat

8 replies

Has anyone got any advice on this?
Im early 30s, fit and healthy. Exercise 5x a week doing HIITs. Fitbit shows heart rate goes upto average 150bpm during exercise. I am boiling hot, face like a tomato, fatigued and sometimes feel faint. But not a bead of sweat. Me and my husband are baffled!?
I realised I never sweat even on holiday. Its like I dont have a sweat gland in my body. I drink 2L of water a day.
Whats going on?!

Damn @Mizydoscape! I was going to say that

I swear very little. Turns out I'm a carrier for x-linked ichthyosis.

I don't know what's going on, but I do have a friend who also doesn't sweat. You need to be careful if you're in a hot place, because sweating is the body's way of cooling itself off, and you could overheat quite easily. I would get advice from a GP.

My friend is on lyrica, i think, for this but she's got a myriad of health problems so I've never asked which one causes this sorry
