“My clothes, pillowcases, and bedsheets have turned green-colored!”

Introduction: Chromhidrosis is a rare disorder in which there is pigmentation of sweat in a variety of colors. The condition can be categorized into apocrine, pseudoeccrine, and true eccrine chromhidrosis. Although it does not cause serious health problem, it may be associated with psychologic stress and social embarrassment. We report a rare case of idiopathic chromhidrosis in a healthy middle-aged female with no significant medical history. A 56-year-old woman with no significant medical history and no personal history of skin cancer presented with a chief complaint "my clothes, pillows, and bedsheets have turned green-colored from my sweats." The patient has noticed light green-colored stains on her pillow cases, bedsheets, and her underwear, shirts, and bras for the past 6 months without any identifiable precipitants or triggers.
