Uh-oh, personal question.....

Never heard of the botox shot but I do sweat excessively, always have, and, though I'm loath to admit it, I have strong body odor, so I have to apply deodorant sometimes 4x a day.

My husband sweats alot and has to wear a undershirt under his teeshirt and sometimes he will still sweat through the two. He's tried many different deoterants but hasn't found one that works to control both the odor and the perspiration.

I have a friend whose feet sweat excessively. He buys a special deodorant at a health food store that you apply once a month. He swears by it. I do not know if it can also be used on underarms, but it would probably be worth looking into

This is what he uses

I don't have a problem with odor, just the sweating. I have a lot of cute shirts I can't wear because I sweat through them! Man this is embarrassing....someone else post embarassing stuff, quick!

All you had to put in the title was "ladies only" or something like that. Then I won't read it.

Hmmph!!!!

I live in Illinois and I keep hearing on the radio a commerical for Botox for that type of problem. Next time I hear it I can give the companies name. I don't think its weird. I have heard of the injections giving instant relief for months!

You two don't believe me do you? Well it's true. I've honored that before.

AND I heard some insurances cover it....?

I have sweated like this for the last six months and I don't know why and I haven't found a solution to it. No smell just a wet feeling all day. I need help too.

I used to sweat a lot but haven't in years now. I guess I kindof outgrew it! Baby powder is good to put on to help absorb some of that so you don't feel as wet and dont sweat through as much! Plus is smells nice!

No i have the opposite problem, I barely sweat and my body expands in summer

Me too!

I've been using Driclor for years now and it works really well! Like Karen's friend, I only have to use it once a month and it solves the problem! Just make sure you follow the instructions well or your armpits will be burnt by the morning (very, very sore!)

It's a problem with excessive sweating, the more you worry about it, the more you sweat - the more you sweat, the more you worry!

Im pretty lucky I don't sweat like this but in the gym I look like I've been out in the rain its disgusting.
My friend used to have this problem but also worked in a chemist at the time and she managed to get this special deodorant you are all speaking about, really helped her!

Hey, if you get the Botox injections then you won't get underarm wrinkles! One less thing to worry about.

Seriously though, I sweat rather easily too. I haven't found a really good anti-perspirant to deal with it. Maybe I'll try that natural one too.
