Please avoid injections or surgery.  I would recommend the antiperspirant Certain Dri. You will never sweat from your hands. Has no smell. Has no residue so it does not stain your clothes at all. It is a roll on you can get at any drug store in the anti-perspirant section. You put it on at night. Go to sleep. Wake up and take a shower. The residue of the anti-perspirant is gone, but you don't sweat at all for a couple of days. And when I say you don't sweat or smell.\n\nIf the Certain Dri does not work or you want to try some other things below is a link to a number of other anti-perspirant solutions.  Just please avoid surgery, there are way to many people who have been disabled by the surgery to try and reduce sweating.

Drink chicken soup and a lot of fluids.  My grandmother made me drink chicken soup and sweat it out under the covers and it works!

A new study at the University of California San Francisco has found that excessive underarm sweating can be treated effectively with botulinum A neurotoxin (Botox®), a toxin derived from bacteria. \n\nThis treatment can be completed in an office visit, requires no anesthesia, and absence of sweating is long lasting.

I know this sounds silly, but take Saran Wrap and wrap the area(s) you want to slim down.  Exercise with this on and those wrapped areas will sweat more than the other areas.  It does help; I've tried it before.

Hi! If the sweating is really intense then you suffer from Hyperhydrosis (I do too, I know aaaall about it)\nYou need a stronger antiperspirant.  The regular ones will not do much to your problem, try at the pharmacy, and ask for Drysol.  This is a strong antiperspirant that you put at night and you will not sweat a drop during the day!!  I use it and works like a charm, no more dripping with embarrassing sweat and awful sweat stains.  Try it!

Yes, I sweat but it doesn't increase armpit hair. I've never heard of that before. I don't have a problem with underarm hairs.

Don't use botox. Get the anti-perspirant Certain Dri. You will never sweat from your underarms, hands, or feet. Eliminates all odor. Has no smell. Has no residue so it does not stain your clothes at all. It is a roll on you can get at any drug store in the anti-perspirant section. You put it on at night. Go to sleep. Wake up and take a shower. The residue of the deoderant is gone, but you don't sweat or smell at all for a couple of days. And when I say you don't sweat or smell I mean it. I go to the gym and my shirt gets soaked except for under the arms. That is how well it works. I have used the product for over a decade, and have had no unhealthy skin responses from using it.

Try to stay cool and if you do get it bad put calamine lotion on it. Don't wear any clothing like nylon that will make your body sweat.

I used to have the same problem.  You can Go to the doctor and get a prescription for an antiperspirant that you would would apply at night.  I noticed results within a few days.  I think it closes the pores in your underarm area so that you  don't sweat so much.  Truthfully it was a but strong for me and irritated my uinderarm skin-dry and itchy.  So I moved on to an over the counter product called 'Certain-Dri' .  It was awesome.  I didn't have to use it everynight after about a week-more like every other night.  You can find it at any pharmacy.  It might be on the shelves outside the pharmacy or inside so you might have to ask for it.  If they don't have it they can order it from their supplier.  They'll know exactly what it is.

I read in a magazine that you could put deodorant on your feet. If it helps you not sweat from your arm pets then your feet wont sweat.\nGood Luck

Agree with one poster, could it be menopause. Even if young you can be pre-menopausal. A blood test will determine that. \n\nWhat is your salt intake?  The body gets rid of salt thru prespiration.\n\nRead following article from WEBMD.COM:\nHeavy Sweating\n\nWhy do I sweat so much? By Lewis P. Stolman, MD\n  \n\n\n\n\nNov. 6, 2000 -- The problem you describe is called hyperhidrosis, or excessive sweating. And yes, there's lots you can do. \n\n\nSweating, of course, is perfectly normal. It's one way the body maintains its temperature. We sweat when it's hot or when we've been exercising vigorously. And when the moisture produced by perspiration evaporates, it cools the skin, and therefore the core temperature of the body. \n\n\nBut sometimes this nifty system goes awry. As many as one in 100 people suffer the kind of problem you're having: When they're under stress, the sweat starts flowing, usually on the palms, soles, face, and armpits. \n\n\nFor whatever reason, some people can undergo extreme stress and not sweat at all. Others find themselves drenched in perspiration from just having to say a few words at a meeting. We don't really understand why one person's threshold for sweating is different from another's. But we do know that the tendency to sweat under stress sometimes runs in families. \n\n\nIf you find yourself sweating all the time, and all over -- not just on your palms, soles, and underarms -- it may be a sign of a serious illness like tuberculosis, some kind of cancer, or thyroid disease. Talk to a doctor immediately. \n\n\nFortunately, most people who sweat heavily under stress aren't in any danger. But they may feel quite embarrassed, and the problem can get in the way of their careers. I've treated artists who can't work because their palms get too sweaty and musicians who have trouble playing their instruments. \n\n\nHow do you stop it? The simplest remedy is an antiperspirant, which can be used on hands and feet as well as in the underarm area. Over-the-counter versions work well. If these don't prove strong enough, you can ask your doctor for a prescription-strength version. And if that doesn't help, your doctor may suggest a tranquilizer (such as Valium) for those special occasions when you know you're likely to be extra nervous -- a job interview, some kind of public speaking, or even a first date. \n\n\nIn particularly stubborn cases, we may have to try other approaches. One option is surgery to remove sweat glands in the affected area. Another is to inject small amounts of Botox -- botulinum toxin -- to block the nerves that trigger sweat glands. This treatment must be repeated every 6 to 8 months, however, and the injections can be painful, especially in the palms and feet. Finally, if all else fails for sweaty hands, a surgical procedure may be performed to sever the nerves to the affected sweat glands. However, this is a serious operation that carries with it the risk of complications. \n\n\nIn my experience, the simplest and most cost-effective way to turn off the faucet is a treatment called iontophoresis. This involves applying a low-level electrical current to the affected area, which essentially blocks the sweat duct. For many patients, a one-time treatment may control excessive sweating for good. \n\n\nThe bottom line: Don't worry too much if stress leaves you with sweaty palms and damp circles under your arms. Make the right moves and you can stay dry. You shouldn't have to sweat it forever. \n\n\nLewis P.
