I've been sweating like crazy latley, just in the last few months. I can even be freezing cold and I still have really sweaty armpits. I've got huge stains on every shirt every day. whats going on? I've tried extra strength/wetness deoderants, as well as some stuff you put on the night before to close the pores. Nothing seems to work. I'm not hot, and I'm not stinky though.
thanks!

I have sweat like that for years. I sweat when I am cold and when I am hot, and I am a woman..... I have had to switch every few months to different deodorants. The one that really seems to work best for me is Certain Dri. You put it on at night before you go to bed. Try it and see if it works for you.

Hi,
If Excessive sweating is your problem you'll find here vert good tips: http://hyperhidrosis.toptips.org
About 2% to 3% of the general population experience excessive sweating a condition called hyperhidrosis which can occur with or without a trigger. The most common type is called primary (or focal) hyperhidrosis and it has no known cause, although it seems to run in families. You may have a different type of excessive sweating called secondary (or generalized) hyperhidrosis.
This means that your symptoms may be due to an underlying medical condition or disease (e.g., nerve damage or a hormone disorder), or due to a side effect of a medication you are taking. Talk to your doctor.
Bye Bye

Hyperhidrosis : Causes for excessive sweating
Excessive sweating or hyperhidrosis is defined as sweating beyond the physiological need of the body. Sweating is a way the body regulates its temperature. Sweat is produced by sweat glands located in the skin in various parts of the body.
These sweat glands have their highest concentrations in the palms of the hands. The activity of sweat glands is under the control of the sympathetic nervous system and is involuntary. Over activity of the sympathetic nervous system can cause excessive sweating.
Excessive sweating or hyperhidrosis is divided into two main categories:
Primary hyperhidrosis
Excessive sweating in primary hyperhidrosis has unknown etiology and tends to be localized. This can affect:
Hands: palmar hyperhidrosis
Face: facial hyperhidrosis
Underarm: axillary hyperhidrosis
Feet: pedal hyperhidrosis
Treatment for primary hyperhidrosis is a multidisciplinary challenge that involves medications, antiperspirants, iontophoresis, and sympathectomy.
Secondary hyperhidrosis
Excessive sweating in secondary hyperhidrosis has an underlying reason and generally affects the entire body. Conditions causing secondary hyperhidrosis are:
Hyperthyroidism
Infections
Malignancy
Autoimmune disorders
Obesity
Menopause
Diabetes
Psychiatric disorders
Treatment for secondary hyperhidrosis involves eliminating the underlying condition.

Ok, here's what you do. Purchase 5 anti-perspiring. Do not use the gell. Use one each day. What's happening to you is that your deodorant is amuned to your body, you got to change off every day. With 5 ---alternate each day, you then will smell sweet and the sweating will cease.
