This is a big pRoblem foR me also, so I know how you feel; I've been theRe, and it's not good. I Reccommend using an anti-peRspiRant deodoRant, followed by RegulaR baby powdeR. The anti-peRspiRant of couRse helps to Reduce sweating, oR at least is said to, but in ouR case... neveR does. Then with the assistance of applying baby powdeR Right oveR the deodoRant, the poRes undeR youR aRm close, theRefoRe, moRe oR less tRapping the sweat in, so to speak. Honestly, this almost ALWAYS woRks foR me, but theRe *ARE* days when it's simply not good enough, and that can be a pain in the ass, so I usually make a point of caRRying some soRt of jacket. HeaRing that, theRe's this pRoduct people aRe talking about on this site, and even adveRtised on television called CeRtainDRi. Now, they say it can be puRchased at Wal-gReens, RiteAid, CVS, and WalmaRt, howeveR, EVERY SINGLE TIME I've been to the stoRe looking foR it, I neveR seen it on the shelves. NatuRally, this leads me to ask an employee wheRe I can find it, and they *always* tell me they've neveR heaRd of it, and they do not caRRy the pRoduct... which just leaves you speechless and with a feeling of, 'what now?' If the pRoblem peRsists, peRhaps you should consult a physician, who can supply you with pRopeR medication. Also, he can give you shots that kind of close up youR poRes, so sweating neveR Really happens again. I'm not shoRe if that's an option foR you, but I Recommend asking him foR moRe info. But whateveR you decide to do, goodluck fRom someone who knows EXACTLY what you'Re going thRough!! Hopefully I've been of some help; know that you can always come back to me if you need anotheR opinion. =D

If you go to the pharmacy or look on the internet you can get deoderant that helps you stop sweating. Most deoderants are formed as a nice smell and stop you getting BO, not to actually stop you sweating. I think Dove do a good deoderant for excessive sweating but check it out. And don't worry, what you are going through is very common! Hope I have helped a little

Ok, well you're fourteen and if your pits are doing that it will go away, but dont double your shirts. Why do that it will just make you sweat more i promise. Yeah using guys doederant will keep it from smelling, but there isnt much you can do about the sweat. If you feel it starting to sweat just sit there for a second and relax, this will calm your pores and keep you from sweating. Dont eat a lot of greassy foods and stuff like that and you'll be fine and dandy!

ooh thats attractive. haha i remember i had really big sweat stains and it was hilarious..aight long story. So basicaly what the first girl said, use Drysol. At first going to the derm may make u feel a bit uncomfortable but its totally worth it..but lets hope he wont make you saran-wrap your armpits with medicine..Ahh. You can try Certain-dri, but it might not be strong enough for your kind of sweating, it wasnt for mine haha, i gess this problem is pretty common TEHEHHEHehHEhEHhehehh he. Aight! have fun and schedule ur appt now because it may take a while to get it and you dont wanna suffer water-pits for much longer do you? good luck, dawg!<3

i had the exact same problem. i went to the dermatologist and she prescribed me Drysol, you just put it on your armpits before u go to bed and you don't sweat for like a week it works amazing. i've also heard Certain Dri, a strong deodorant u can get at the drugstore works well too but i've never tried it
