Depends where the sweat is coming from.

Mostly related to liver disease.

Mainly from the head. I have to buy new baseball caps during summer.

If you sweat excessively from your head and face, in particular, you may have a condition known as craniofacial hyperhidrosis. Hyperhidrosis means sweating more than is necessary to maintain a normal body temperature. It can range in severity from dampness to dripping.

There are two main types of hyperhidrosis: primary and secondary.

Primary hyperhidrosis is the most common type. It means the excessive sweating is not caused by a medical condition, physical activity, or increased temperature. It typically affects the hands, feet, head, and face. It can occur in other parts of the body as well.

Secondary hyperhidrosis is related to a medical condition or medication that causes excessive sweating, such as:

heart disease cancer diabetes menopause stroke spinal cord injuries use of some antidepressants
