What is the reason for sweating in summer, and what is the reason for sweating in summer?

Physiological factors

It is very hot in summer. In order to balance the temperature difference between the body and the outside world and avoid heatstroke, the thermoregulation center will issue instructions, and the capillaries of the whole body and forehead will be opened to discharge sweat, so that the body temperature will drop. It is said that there is more sweating on the forehead.

Caused by hypoglycemia

Sweating on the forehead in summer may also be caused by hypoglycemia. When the patient has hypoglycemia, the sudden drop of blood sugar stimulates sympathetic nerve excitement, and the release of a large amount of adrenaline can lead to pallor, cold sweat, tremors of hands and feet, etc.

Hyperthyroidism patients caused by hyperthyroidism are not only manifested by sweating on their foreheads, but also by mental stress, personality change, irritability, inattention, difficulty in falling asleep and other symptoms.
