Ok, Since a teenager I have had problems with sweating from my underarms. I remember the first time I noticed, I was on a date and when I looked down at my blue button up there was 6" round wet spots under my arms. Embarassing to say the least.
After I graduated I worked in a Factory where I sported cut-offs and the sweating was not a problem. Thats work. My personal life was another thing. Any time I was in a position that I had ANY nerveousness or I was concentrating, there was a puddle of sweat dripping from my underarms, literally. Now I work in an office and I honestly couldn't bring enough shirts to keep the one I'm wearing dry. I resorted to rolling up Toilet Paper and sticking it under my arms for about an hour before I had to change it. Bad thing it would get so wet, it fell apart and if I wasn't watching.. you could track my steps.. but I would usually pick anything up if it fell out.. lol god.. rediculous. Completely embarrassing and it changed every aspect of my life, until just the other day.
I tried EVERYTHING and the ONLY thing that helped me until recently has been those damn underarm pads, which after a few hours are completely soaked and uncomfortable. I went to the doctor several times with no success and scheduled a appt for ETS to only find out my Insurance thought it was "Cosmetic" and wouldn't cover the $15,000 procedure. In my 'journey', after trying EVERYTHING known for HH, i thought possibly I was out of shape... which I really wasn't.. I'd say about average, about 5'8" - 160 with 18% BF- 23yrs old. I started hitting the gym, not only to possibly cure my HH but to also give me some other form of confidence because honestly, I had NONE with HH being constantly on my mind. I am in great shape now, completely changed my body and my outlook. I am 5'8", 157 lbs, 6% BF and muscular 23 yrs old. Working out and getting in shape DID NOT help my HH at ALL!! It did help build my confidence back up and honestly sweating in the Gym was pretty normal so it is one place I feel VERY comfortable, even though I am sweating before I start working out!
Recently and after the news of my insurance turning my procedure down- I took matters into my own hands. I thought to myself well **** it.. I have an idea to stop my pores from releasing sweat.. My idea was to burn my armpits. Yes, burn them with a flame or get a spoon real hot and push it on my skin until I couldn't possibly take it any more. I tried the flame first, I didn't melt my skin but I definatley heated it up, my plan was to heat it up every day to a point that I couldn't tolerate and keep doing it every day in hopes it would scar it over and block the pores. After about 3 days of doing this, I came across a website talking about Drichlor or somthing like that.. which I was perscribed beore but it felt like it was eating my armpit out.. burned incredibly bad- worse than the direct flame to my skin. To cut that short- I couldnt tolerate it... and I have a high tolerance for pain. On this same website they talked about another Topical Treatment called Anhydrol-Forte. I searched it up and found it on a website "Superliving.co.uk" where I purchased this Anhydrol-Forte for under $5. It is shipped from another country, not the US. I received this Roll on topical treatment 4 days later. Yes, 4 days later from out of the Country- passed through customs fine. Being VERY sceptical I applied it before going to bed like the directions said. Blew on it until it dried (turned a chalky white) and waited for the burn. 5 Minutes later I felt NO BURN and my pits felt dry/chalky.. which to me was a wonderful feeling. The next morning I woke up and showered, cleaned the shit off my underarms.. and reapplied after drying my pits off. The direction only recommend at night but I have a SEVERE case and was willing to put up with the irritation if it ment not stuffing TP under my arms. The day after, which is today.. is the FIRST DAY in YEARS i have not had to hide my underarms. I get to work around 7 and by 8:30 I have 5"-6" sweat spots IF i didn't stuff TP under my arms... and the only activity I was doing was Drawing on the computer... NOTHING physical- everyday is like that. Today I wore a very tight undershirt that hugged my armpits tight under my hoodie. I went into the bathroom around 9, took my hoodie off and to my amazement- my left pit was completely dry, my right one had a dime size wet spot. Around noon, I was back in the bathroom with my hoodie off to inspect and walla same thing. Left completely dry and right w/a small dime size spot. I just got out of the bathroom again around 2 and both arms are dry with no visible wet spots. Mind you with a shirt this tight, I normally cant wear it for 20 minutes without a few inch wet spot showing up.
This is the first day I have tested this stuff but again this is the first day in YEARS I have been dry as well.. which is a HUGE thing for me. I lost all hope for everything, I thought my case was the worste there was and no treatment but surgery or something stupid and drastic was going to resolve my problem. I havn't applied this to my hands or feet but it can be used there as well.. My hands are still sweating today and I'm sure my feet are but I am COMPLETELY amazed and extremely happy that this seems to be working for my pits. It seems abnormal to be dry and not going to the bathroom to change Toilet paper from under my arm every hour... I typed this whole thing out because I wanted people to hear this. If your situation sounds familiar to this one I highly recommend trying Anhydrol-Forte Roll On (60ml). It is VERY cheap and has given me hope that something out there will work. I don't want to get my hopes to high yet but you have no idea how much releif this ONE day has given me.. I really think this is going to be the answer for me and I hope you all give this a shot and it works for you as well. I know how shitty life can be constantly having to deal with this.
P.S. I joined and waited 2 days to approve my account so I could tell you all about this... I really hope this works for you.. I am on my second day with this now.. Today is better than the first. I haven't had ANY wet spots and I have been doing physical activity as well as just sitting here concentrating on my computer. No irritation either.. I am still in shock this is actually working. Feels good to wear a normal fitting shirt!! Come on summer!!!
