Sound Familiar?

Hey, im 23years old and just began to notice palmer hyperhidrosis as a noticeable problem. From my understanding hyperhidrosis is generally discovered during one’s childhood or adolescence and is also predominantly linked to family genetics. I am past my adolescent years and have no prior history of hyperhidrosis in my family. Is there anyone who has found themselves in this familiar position who might have some insight into a course of action?

I’m well aware of the many different treatment options…I’m more interested in finding out if my situation is linked to a possible secondary cause of HH, i.e. a cause that may be reversible. I must add that I’m not taking any medications and I do not live in a particularly stressful environment (though recognition of HH has made me become significantly more self-conscious about my hands). Any thoughts?
