I USED to have the same problem, but now i use this deoderant/anti-perspirant called Mitchum. It works really well. Yeah i have tried secret but it didnt work. Mitchum has gells and solid-kinds of deoderant. Personally i like the solids. lol
I'm not sure if it's a guys deoderant, but what the heck..right?! lol
hope i helped*

You should try waxing. It will last longer than shaving. but if u do shave put some of that lotion that makes your hair grow back slowly under your arms.

well this is going to sound weird but id wear mens deodarent if i were you because men sweet twice as much as us and the odor is twice as bad so ya it would work better try it.

ive never heard of baby powder working...but secret doesnt always work 4 certain people, i had to try around and test different stuff till i found one that works, so if you've already done that, i would recommend going to the doctor and getting prescription stuff, my friend has it and it works GREAT!

I use Secret, but Speed Stick works really well too. So does Dove!

BeFABULOUSxo answered Friday May 6 2005, 11:04 pm:
Been there! You MIGHT have what I have. It is called hyperhydrosis. Hyperhydrosis means that you have overactive sweatglands. Go to your dermatologist and he might prescribe you something called Aluminum Chloride. It's awesome. I used to use but I moved onto a heavier thing. Its a pill that dried out your whole body. It doesnt hurt or anything. Your mouth just gets dry in the morning lol. But if it's not that, Ban and Certain Dry work good for most. Good luck. Anymore questions? IM me at gre3neyedxgirlx3 xO ali

Anything that is powder will work and it will help you. It will work but if you are sweating a lot, then I suggest that you try out Certain Dri. It's the strongest anti-perspirant deoderant that you can get at pharmacies for under $10 and it works. It closes up your sweat pores and you won't sweat that much at all.

mapetiteodette answered Friday May 6 2005, 7:31 pm:
Baby powder will definitely work- it has worked well for a lot of the people that I know. Anything drying will work for a deoderant. Another tip is to use your own brand of deoderant, and then put a layer of baby powder over it. That way you have double the protection.

Hey try shower-to-shower deoderant powder, theirs a ton of different kinds, they work great! They absorb the sweat and dont let you smell, it works alot better than baby powder :) Hope I helped xox.

I'm not sure if baby powder will work but I know something that will. It's called Certain Dri. You put it on at night and your regular deoderant over it in the morning. It works amazingly well. I hope I helped! &hearts; good luck

Wear deodorant and baby powder. I think baby powder by itself would stop working in a short amount of time.
