Sweating Only 16.?

Okay.. So I have this problem I'm 16 years old, a girl, 5'3.5 100lbs. and I have a sweating problem! and I can't seem to get it to go away and with winter coming up where I can't where tank tops or camis anymore it's going to be a bigger issue! I sweat alot. I don't know what to do. Even when I'm not hot or anything, I'll just be sitting in the car, or on the sofa or whatever not doing much of anything.. and I sweat through my shirt (underarms!) I don't know what the deal is and it's been going on for about 2 years now and just is getting worse! Any deotants I can try?? I already have tried a number of secrets products, mitchum, dove and several others. Please help its embrassing. And I don't want to go through another winter or sweating when it's not even hot!

Sweating Only 16.?
OMGosh! I am 16 too and I have the same problem. It started @ 14 for me. I have this condition called Hyperhidrosis and that may be what you have (you can google it for more information). You can also go on WebMD.com too for more information. There are plenty of things to try! I agree with the person above me- the first thing you should try is Certain Dri. It is about 6 dollars at any drugstore, it isn't like a regular anti-perspirant, you put it on at night. It may sting just alittle bit but it is really nothing. Make sure you buy the Certain Dri box with the green trimming, not the blue trimming (you will know what I'm talking about when you go to the drugstore). The green one is the anti-perspirant. The blue one is a deodorant that makes you smell good. They work really well! If that doesn't work, you can try Maxim or Secret Clinical Strength. They didn't work 4 me but they may work 4 you. Secret is bought at the drug store too, but you have to order Maxim online. If none of those things work, I think you should talk to your dermatologist. They give you these pills to take and they work better than any antiperspirant (I have tried all of these things). That should take care of the problem! After treatments like these even if your sweating doesn't go away, it will still be reduced by a lot. There is also Botox you can get, you can talk to the doctor about that. But I know how you feel, I have been there, and I'm so sorry you are going through this! I hope this answer helps and I hope everything works out 4 you! =)
Reply:yeah, the same thing is happening to me and its been going on for 2 year too, but i am only 14, i have tried secret clinical but it doesn't work well at all!!!
Reply:I know what you are going through, I have the same problem. I would even sweat when it was winter, which I thought it was insane. Sometimes it could be that you are nervous without even releasing it, so try not to think about your underarms that much and see if that helps. Plus it's a normal stage where teens go through.





I use Certain Dri, you can buy it on your nearest drug store. Apply when you are going to bed, and make sure you don't apply after taking a shower or shaving. It can create itchy sensation and rashes.
Reply:its part of growing up and going through puberty


im only 14 and its the same for me too


youll get through it lol
Reply:oo my gosh.. same thing happened here... the BEST product to use is certain dri.................it is AMAZING.... I have been using it for the past 3 months and i havent sweated AT ALL!!!! I use to wear sweatshirts in the summer.. and now i wear normal short sleeve shirts and i dont sweat at all!!!! If u want to stop the sweating use certain dri... it almost stops ur sweat instantly!!! Just trust me on this and try it... u can buy it all wal-mart.... it should be at the top of all the deodrants!! It's like 5 or 6 dollars but its the best 5 or 6 dollars u will ever spend... and u will be glad u did!
