The hair has nothing to do with you sweating. You sweat from inside you body. Is it just your underarms that sweat so much? Try another brand of anti-perspirant/deodorant. And make sure it says that it's BOTH an anti-perspirant (that stops you from sweating so much) and a deodorant (keeps you from stinking if you do have a little sweat.
Remember, too, if you sweat a lot, you need to replenish your body's fluids. Gatorade is the best. It replaces the potassium and sodium you lose when you sweat.

Ehm..
Hyperhidrosis, also known as polyhidrosis or sudorrhea means excessive sweating; sweating too much
The most active regions of perspiration include the hands, feet, armpits and the groin area because of a relatively high concentration of sweat glands in those areas.
There are two types of hyperhidrosis. Primary focal hyperhidrosis refers to overactive sweat glands that affect certain areas of the body, such as the hands, feet, face or underarms.
This form of hyperhidrosis can't be prevented and isn't contagious because it was probably inherited (although the condition may skip a generation). Secondary generalized hyperhidrosis is total body
sweating prompted by secondary medical conditions or medications.

With shorter armpit hair, your deodorant will be applied much closer to the skin and should decrease the amount you sweat. If it is still a problem, try different deodorants or anti-perspirants. Get one with a higher percentage of zinc. That's what stops the sweat/smell.

Not really.
Hyperhidrosis can be caused by food allergies, or a mineral/vitamin deficiency. I had it for a long time before learning this.
Check out this article about hyperhidrosis, grains, and sugars. Scroll about halfway down the page.

I had hyperhidrosis and other symptoms for many years. I tried all the usual treatments including ETS surgery, prescriptions, antiperspirants, botox, etc. The surgery was most helpful but several years later hyperhidrosis began to return.
This year I was diagnosed with a few food allergies and celiac disease. I eliminated wheat, dairy, and sugar from my diet. I stopped all prescriptions and began taking supplements for B vitamins and magnesium.

Nope. Hair doesn't cause you to sweat, the natural bacteria on your skin is what causes you to sweat. Try using a strong anti-perspirant with baby powder. The baby powder will help soak up any moisture that you have and the anti-perspirant will create a shield to prevent you from sweating.

Not really. I recommended an anti prespirant such as Drichlor. You roll it on at night (stings a little) wash off in morning (I don't) then use a regular deodorant. I got it on prescription but I think you can ask your pharmasist for it. I've been using it for 3 weeks now and has changed my life. No more horrid sweat stains and smell. DRICHLOR. Fantastic stuff. Wish it was around when I was a teenager...less bullying.

Axillary hair is basically a secondary sexual characteristic. It has no effect on sweating which is from the axillary sweat glands. These have 2 functions, sweating to help cooling and also the secretions are high in sex pheromones.

No it will not, you'll sweat just the same, but the hair does tend to trap and smell big time, so shaving or cutting will get your deodorant closer to your skin and keep the smell down to a minimum.

I am an alternative medicinal therapist and an ex nurse and I can tell you that it wont make the slightest difference. Your sweat glands are responsible for this not the hair. The hair is there to keep our heat in, that is why we have it on our head,eyebrows and on our body area. If we remove it then we lose body heat faster

You have large sweat glands under your arms and there is nothing you can do to control the amount of sweat except to limit your salt/sodium intake and your water consumption.And use a clear antiperspirant.
