No, shaving your underarms does not reduce sweating.
Sweating is a natural bodily function controlled by your nervous system and helps regulate your body temperature. The amount of sweat you produce is influenced by factors like:
- Temperature: You sweat more when it’s hot.
- Exercise: Physical activity increases your body temperature, leading to more sweating.
- Stress: Emotional stress can also trigger sweating.
- Hormonal changes: Some people experience increased sweating during puberty or menopause.
While shaving your underarms might feel like it reduces sweating because you can see the sweat less easily, it does not actually change the amount of sweat your body produces. Shaving simply removes the hair, which can trap sweat and make it more noticeable.
