What Causes Excessive Sweating And Weight Gain?
I am a male, 34 years old. For the past ten years I have had excessive sweating on my face, chest, and shoulders. I have also had excessive weight gain in my breasts, hips (love handles) and puffy face, (chin fat). I am wondering if I may have an endocrine disorder with excess estrogen etc..

Hello,
I have gone carefully through your concern.
The symptoms you reported are suggestive for Cushing syndrome or excessive cortisol production.
I would recommend to check the cortisol level at the 24 hour collected urine.
Do not hesitate to attach the results.
