Question

ok. so. i have a persperation problem. i shower, put on deoderant, and don't wear things that would provoke sweating.

i put on a lot of deoderant (Secret: Stay Strong Protection [invisable solid]). is that a bad thing? do you recomend any other deoderants?

any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Answer 1

Just recently Secret launched a deodorant that is prescription strength that you can get at the drug store so it shouldn't be too awfully expensive. I recommend you give it a try.
Here's the link if you want to read more about it.

hey! on the recent issue of GL mag, it says that excessive sweating is called hyper-hidro something-or-other (hyperhidrosis) andsome other blah blah, but then it says here *points to sentence in magazine*

Dr. Doris Day, spokesperson for the American Society for Dermatologic Surgery and a dermasurgeon in NYC recommends an over-the-counter product containing a deoderant AND antiperspirant (TRY CERTAIN-DRI, $5.99, DRUGSTORE.COM).

ta-daa! and after that it says if that doesnt work, a dermo can help. hope I did! ^3~

Answer 3

I hardly ever sweated until I started using an anti-depressant. Since then, I've switched deodorants like a dozen times until I've finally found one that works for me. It's Arrid XXX Dry - Cool Blue Shower Breeze (or something to that effect).

Answer 4

You might have a condition called hyperhidrosis if you sweat very excessively. Ask your doctor about it - if you do have it, they make special antiperspirants for it that will help A LOT. (for underarms, hands, feet, groin, back, works anywhere.)
I use Dove invisible solid which works really great but even better is Mitchum for women. Has a great scent and lasts FOREVER.

Answer 5

You might have a condition that just naturally makes you sweat more than other people. I think there is a medicine your doctor can give you for this but I'm not sure. Otherwise keep deodorant wipes with you at all times!

Answer 6

Some of the lower brands don't work as well. Try using a "Brand Name" deodarant. Make sure it is the "dry" type...not roll on(the wet one) and not spray.
some of the natural stones seem to work too. Good luck!
If it gets worse or more bothersome, you may want to talk with your dr. They do have meds now for it!

Answer 7

have you tired using a roll on deodorant i find they help me better than the spray on ones
if it continues too much though that your at the point on rarghh explain the situation to your doctor and he may be able to give you something stronger

Answer 8

Look up treatments for hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating). There are special deodorants, pills, etc., depending on what you want to do about it.
