Im 15/f and i tend to sweat a lot. Even if im not cold i sweat under my arm pits without even knowing it. I always want to wear a sweatshirt over my t-shirt because it gets bad. Yes i wear deoderant! I've tried like every kind out there and nothing seems to take away the wetness. Its embarrasing because everytime i lift up my arms people see this big ole sweat "puddle" is there anything that will help??? Thanks a lot!!!

Kayendall06 answered Wednesday April 5 2006, 4:48 pm: You might be wearing deoderant, but are you wearing anti-persperiant? Deorderant just smells nice. Anti-persperant smells nice and it prevents sweat. If your deoderent does not say anti-persperant then go by one that does. I used to have a problem like you, and I started using DRY IDEA. It can be found basically at any pharmacy or wal-mart or anything like that.
cheddar answered Wednesday April 5 2006, 4:23 pm: I used to have the same problem so my doctor recommended using Certain-Dri. You can get it at the drug store and it's around $4. Just make sure that you put it on before you go to bed, don't put it on freshly shaved underarms, and use it only on your underarms! Another thing is it can be itchy because it's closing your pores, but try not to scratch it or it will be even worse. [ cheddar's advice column | Ask cheddar A Question ]

The best thing is go to a doctor or the local cosmetics place and see what's the best thing to use that won't make you itch! [ jammy12's advice column | Ask jammy12 A Question ]
xEVYx answered Wednesday April 5 2006, 3:24 pm: i had this problem too, and i asked my doctor about it and he said i probably wasnt using a deoderant with strong enough anti-perspirant. so i started using "Mitchum" its for both male/female and it works really good. put it on a few minutes before you put your shirt on and it should last all day, or atleast several hours. take it in your purse or backpack if you need to redo it in the bathroom or something later in the day. good luck!
mmich answered Wednesday April 5 2006, 1:41 pm: in the morning when you are getting dressed put on your deoderant and then wait like ten minutes before putting on your shirt. Or if you have no time you can even blow dry your arm pits. This should prevent you from sweating. [ mmich's advice column | Ask mmich A Question ]
