I need some help. This is very embarrassing but I sweat a lot just in my armpits though. I'm not sure why but even when I'm cold I still do and I can't control it. Even deodorant doesn't work, It's just really irritating to deal with and I'm not sure what to do I even tried using certaindri and it doesn't work. Should I go see a doctor about it? Or are there ways to stop this?

Are you taking any medications for anything? Do you know if this has been a problem with other family members?

Yes, I'd suggest you talk with your doctor about this. Please read this article --

Are you using deodorant or anti-perspirant? You said deodorant in your post. If that's the case, you should know that deodorant doesn't help with sweating, it's used to cover up the smell of sweat. An anti-perspirant is used to stop you from sweating, or at least lower how much you sweat. Some work better than others, so try a variety, it may take time to find one that works for you.
