I had the same problem as you for over 7 years. I tried the deoderants, the anti-persprints, the lemon and baking soda bumbo jumbo, took a bath with some nasty stuff in it.
And then I discovered Certain-Dri about two years ago and would not change it for the world!!!
You apply it before bedtime, it stings a little so don't shave your underarms before you apply. After a couple uses it'll stop itching and it's totally worth it.
You still use the deoderant of your choice during the day.
I've advised all my friends to use it and they're hooked.
You can get it at your local Longs Drugs, Walgreens, or Wal-mart and it costs around $7 a bottle.
Your problems are over! I promise!
By the way, it even works in other areas of the body. One of my friends had a problem with sweaty hands and it worked for that too! Amazing!!!

Sweating is natural but is influenced by the male hormone testosterone. All women have low levels of testosterone, but going on hormonal birth control raises estrogen levels, which can help reduce sweating. It also helps w/acne, if that's a probem. Of course being 13, this might not be the best option...
Kiehl's makes an awesome cream deodorant (it's almost like lotion, you rub it in and it dries totally clear, won't leave marks on clothes, etc.) but it's kind of pricey and hard to find - Nordstrom carries their products.
Barring that, you can get Botox injections that are incredibly effective. Very expensive, though. I'd also look into the cortisone injections - talk to your Dr. or a dermatologist.

Well my sister had the same problem except she was like 15 when it started.
She would use all kinda of deoderant and people would tease her at school saying she doesnt use deoderant. Its just because she has a sweating problem. its called Hyperhidrosis
Read this and u will know about it and how to help stop it
Deoderant doesnt really help (but you should still use it)

There's an anti-perspirant called Certain-Dri that really works, you put it on at night before bedtime and what it actually does is shrinks the underarm pores and is cumulative, so you only have to use it every other day once you stop sweating- (usually after a day or two). I got it at Target.

I have found that Arm and Hammer Pure Baking Soda works. What you want to do is put some in your hand add some water to it so its not too pasty and not to watery, apply it on armpits for at least 10 minutes and just wash off.

Honey, girls don't "sweat" they glisten! I had a problem with it until I found that medicated powder. Big yellow can, I think. Can't think of the name and try Mitchum deodorant. Also if you wear microfiber it pulls sweat off of your body. Great for bra.
