Welkl Im 16 years old and I'm seriously getting tired of smelling from sweating. Like, I have a shower before I leave the house for a few hours and 5-10 mins after I start walking or whatever my underarms start to sweat and you can just smell the BO, is there anything that can SLOW or STOP this process down e.g. talcum powder? ive got NO idea, but please help me

this is a shot in the dark, but i was a member of HB a while back, and i remember a woman talking about her niece, i think, who used to sweat like crazy and used to smell from it. she ended up telling the girls mother, and she brought her to the doctor. well, there is a special deodarant doctors can give you, and i remember her saying it worked very very well. try a search, but i'm not sure if the old stuff was erased after the board style changed. there is hope! i just don't know what its called, lol. good luck.

What about talcum powder, do you think that could work? just a guess

No, talcum powder won't work; it may feel nice when you first put it on when you're nice and dry, but as soon as you start perspiring, it will mix with the sweat and turn into a paste under your arms. Do you wear deodorant? I ask because you don't say in your post that you do, just that you shower.

There was a discussion on this maybe a month or two ago (you may find it if you do a search) and what they recommended worked for my husband, who has a tendency to perspire quite a bit (but no odor). There's a deodorant called Certain Dri that you apply at night, and it literally stops you from perspiring. My husband says it's the first thing he's ever used that actually worked. You use it at night only, and then some people on here also recommended using Arrid XXX, and one person said they even wore a t-shirt that was tight under the arms for hours, and was completely dry when she got home. That was good enough for me and I went out and bought this stuff for my husband...he hasn't had a problem since. You can find it at any drugstore, and remember, you use it at night before bed.

Good luck, and let us know if it works.

Try a product called odaban.

I use to sweat profusely from the hands and armpits. This was the only thing that I found that worked.

Good luck

just wondering.. if we use anti-perspirant.. will it affect the body coz the sweat and toxic can't escape from the body?
