You should see a doctor about the problem if you have tried a few different deodorants and they aren't helping. Try switching to other brands before you give up though, including the few brands I've listed below.

Some people just naturally sweat more than others. It could be a hereditary condition called hyperhidrosis, but you'd have to see a doctor for that diagnosis.

They now have the prescription strength over-the-counter formulas out there for women. Secret Clinical Strength and Certain Dri are both specifically made for this type of problem. You should check them out and follow the directions on using them as I believe they have different application instructions than other deodorants.

Also, if you don't want to be spendy with the deodorant, you could try Mitchum for women, as I've heard good things about it as well.

Here is also a good link on some tips on controlling the sweat in the meantime:

It does add this that you may want to consider:

"If you perspire even when you're relaxed and the temperature is cool, see your doctor [as] it could be a sign of an underlying health problem."

So please consider that and make a doctor's appointment right away to get checked out and make sure everything is alright.

...and this site:

...has this tip:

"Use an antiperspirant with aluminum chloride, which blocks pores to inhibit the release of sweat. Try the new Soft & Dri DermaStripe..."

I wish you luck on finding a good method to controlling your perspiration.
