I have a sweating problem I take a shower in the morning and by nine I am sweating so bad that it is embarrassing, I can only wear certain colors and if I dont when I am cutting hair my clients can see a ring of sweat under my arms, it is so embarrassing. I don't smell or anything but I went to the doctor and he said not to worry that sweating i just a sign of good health, I have tried so many different deodorants.any advice?

If your problem is the sweat not the smell, just deodorant will not cut it for you... you'll need an actual anti-perspirant, which will have "aluminum chloride" written on the label. Assuming you have tried those, then the next step is the heavier duty antiperspirants. One brand I've heard of as having good results is called "Certain-dri".
If none of that stuff works, then you need to go back to your doctor and say, "Yes, I know sweating is not unhealthy. But I work in a profession where not having a certain look can damage my career. Sweating is not part of that look. Can you prescribe me something?" Hopefully, he can write you a scrip for something like Drysol. And if he doesn't, seek out another doctor.
There's more hard-core surgical treatments, but for most people they aren't necessary.

You might try an antipersperant/deoderant Maxim. If this does not work, your physician can prescribe Drysol. This medication seems to resolve the problem in about 80 % of patients who use it. Good luck!
