Hello I am writing desperate for help! I suffer from excessive sweating in the groin and butt areas. I am 24 years old and can't imagine having to live life this way forever. This condition is very embarrassing and depressing. Topical antiperspirant didn't help any and botox is not an option due to cost and the need to be constantly repeated. I have heard a lot about off label use of miradry but still can not find a doctor to help me. Please help... Any permanent option..

MiraDry® is FDA cleared for eliminating underarm sweat, but has not been studied for safety in pregnant or breast feeding women. The procedure is non-invasive and requires minimal to zero downtime in terms of recovery.I cannot recommend this procedure while you're pregnant or breastfeeding.
Thank you for your question. I often recommend that you wait a few days before you resume normal activities. It is OK to go to the gym really soon afterwards, however you will feel like your armpits are more bloated and hot. After a few days, you can go back to normal exercise at a graduated pace.
