I am about 15 years old and I have had a wierd sweating problem since about the beginning of 7th grade (and im a 9th grader now). I have tried almost 10 different types of deoderants/anti-perspirant including mens. I tried certain dri and the Aluminum Chloride(Hexahydrate) that i got prescripted. My friend uses the prescripted stuff aswell and she says it helps her and she never sweats, but ive been using it since last year and it hasnt helped me. Have any ideas?
So, you've been to the doctor? If you have then maybe ask him/her about it again. If you haven't go to a doctor, and ask them about it. It might be what you're doing, it might be your eating habits, it might be your soap, it could just be you. Don't worry about it. Sweating is something we all do! I wish you the best of luck!

I would say head to the docters again and get a new perscription... maybe a different one or maybe just stronger... also, Baby powder helps to dry up the sweaty areas!!

sublime_burritos answered Friday April 15 2005, 12:12 am: if you were prescribed aluminum chloride and it is ineffective, then you should go back to the doctor and tell him/her that. you might have a more severe case of hyperhydrosis, for which there are many levels of treatment. As your doctor what's best for your individual needs.
