sweat!


Question Posted Saturday March 3 2007, 1:57 am

i sweat a lot. even when im not hot. and also i am hot very often, which causes me to sweat even more. my doctor said it just ties in with stress, and with my "sleeping disorder" and is like just all stress and crap. but its not. and they're not doing anything about it because my blood test is fine. i can never wear long sleeves or jackets for a long time unless its really cold. its embarrasing and i dont want to put a jacket over to cover the marks, because then i will just sweat more! i get like hotflashes, like im pregnant or something lol. and i sometimes get so hot that i feel dizzy and like i might faint. any advice on not sweating so much..and maybe any advice on how to keep cool or something? i really appreciate anyones thoughts and ideas!!

I had this same problem up to about a week ago. I used to sweat and it was really embarrassing so I know how you feel. Go to your doctor and get the prescription antiperspirant called DrySol. It worked so well on my I haven't sweat since I put it on.

Things to do and not to do while using it.
-were deoderant because it does not cover up "smell"
-don't put on when you just shave (very bad)
-don't put on twice two days in a row (I got burned, like sunburn on my armpits it stung for days!)
-Use it at night and let it dry before putting a shirt on
-Wash off in morning with soap before putting deoderant on

I hope this helps. I highly recommed DrysoL!

I really don't know how to stop the hot flashes and stop from getting hot so often, but if you're worried about the pit-stains you should talk to your doctor about prescription antiperspirants. They tend to be a lot stronger than drugstore ones and will probably stop your armpits from sweating so much.

I've had the same problem. The sweating was caused by anxiety. Try the anti perspirant Certain Dry available at drug stores.
If you are an adult botox injected in the arm pits will reduce sweating. However it's expensive.
