{Abstract}: Hematohidrosis is an extremely rare condition characterized by the oozing or secretion of blood through intact skin and mucosa, particularly through eccrine glands. Although there is not much literature available on the condition, examples of Hematohidrosis include the crying and sweating of blood. The fluid may have a bloody tinge or may be frank blood. The anomaly has no identifiable etiology, and patients generally present in a good state of health. In this report, we present a 19-year-old female who had weekly occurrences of bloody diaphoresis that had been present consistently for one year. During her presentation at the hematology clinic, she was investigated thoroughly for alternative causes, but none were found. The patient was diagnosed with hematohidrosis and was offered treatment with propranolol, which she declined. She continues to follow up routinely in the hematology clinic with persistent symptoms.
