Any possible link between digestive issues and increased sweating? i.e. if one is constipated, maybe sweats more? or is there no relation? thank you

Can happen: Conditions that cause discomfort can trigger nonspecific stress hormone & Adrenalin release that can result in more sweating. Constipation falls into that category. I have seen a rare patient with true stool retention problems that developed body sweats & a 103 temp that disappeared after an enema.

How i can stop night sweats? (i'm too young to be menopausal) i get night sweats almost every night. I think it's a side effect of an antidepressant i take. Aside from stopping the drug, is there anything i can do to help with this side effect? Thank you.
