All this deoderant talk probably isn't going to stop you from sweating. I used to sweat under my armipits... Constantly for about 1/2 my life & I'm 31 now. If you sweat constantly... Even in 18 degree weather you might have hyperhidrosis. Hyperhidrosis is a condition when someone sweats excessively regardless if it's 90 degrees or 15 degrees. I did a lot of resarch & read on several websites that Clonidine (actually a blood pressure med) worked for many people that sweat excessivly. My doctor prescribed it to me even tho I don't have high blood pressure, he said it is still safe to take. I also got a second opinion from another doctor and got the same response. I've been taking Clonidine .1mg 2-3X per day & within 48 hours I wasn't sweating anymore. I could actually wear all the shirts that I couldn't wear before b/c of guaranteed armpit stains... But now... 5 years later still on the same dosage of Clonidine... There is still no sweating. I check my blood pressure frequently since it's a blood pressure med & it's always normal. Clonidine is always very cheap weather you have insurance or not. If you have no insurance I suggest going to floridadiscountdrugcard.com and sign up. A lot of the discount cards don't give you much of a break but florida discount card and Simple Savings Card are the two best. Hope you try it because I think it will work... And believe me.. Once I stopped sweating and as time went on it sounds corny but it really changed my life. I'm not self concious all the like I used & when I go out with friends or on a date I'm not constantly checking my shirt for wetness or keeping my arms pressed against my body making sure the wet sweat on my shirt is covered by my arms. Anyways, it's worth a shot. If Clonidine isn't for you then just google hyperhidrosis medication or sweating medication and you should have more options..... J3N

Keep underarm hair shaved and use plenty of deodorant.Using baby powder after showering is also pretty effective.

You need to find a deodorant that works for you. I've seen Ban, the kind that had a green band works, or something like Dove, Secret etc. Sometimes powder also helps.
