I feel so uncomfortable in school! & I can't figure out a solution! HELP! GIRLS ONLYYYYY!?

This is making me so uncomfortable.

I don't understand why I perspire so much in school.

I wear deodorant, I smell fine.

But my school is so hot that I can't stand it!

I just get so hot that I start to perspire profusely, and one of my friends whispered, "..sweat marks." I was SO embarassed I had to get my sweatshirt on & that made me extremely hot that I was going insane!

I mean, there are a couple of rooms that are cool, but the hallways and 98% of the other classrooms are extremely hot!

There are fans in most of the classrooms have fans..but it so hot in there, that it doesn't help! And the school says they can't afford the AC, but they bought about 20 brand new computers!

My hair gets all messed up because of me perspiring, not only under my arms-but my face, the back of my neck, and my back!

WHAT CAN I DO?

I perspire like a pig and I'm a girl! I seem like one of the guys!

WHAT CAN I DO?!

HELP!!!!

THanks.

    i went through this and eventually you will grow out of it. But i would say try some of the stuff that says clinical on it, it is typically stronger.

    (edit)

    If you can't control the amount you sweat, you might want to try wearing shirts that have a pattern that hides the sweat marks well. Sometimes I sweat a lot & if I'm wearing my camouflage shirt you can't see the sweat marks.

    >Also maybe try wearing looser fitting shirts that are made of cotton. Synthetic fabrics may cause you to sweat more.

    Maybe these links can help too.

    "Topical Treatments: Both over the counter and prescription antiperspirants have been used to treat mild to moderately severe cases of underarm perspiration. Typically these antiperspirants plug the pores on the surface of the skin thus preventing sweat from reaching the surface.." (Make sure you check out the part about side effects.)

    I started this in my late 20's... so, I know the embarrassment and the conscience discomfort in general you feel...

    I don't know how old you are, but, whenever you get older, you can get "botox" shots in the area, and that will kind of paralyze the area... BUT, hopefully by that time, there will be something better out ;p

    plus, I notice that mine is worse whenever I wear tighter shirts, so if I am going to be walking out in the hot sun or in a hot/crowded area (like your school may be), I will wear something that is less fitting in the area...

    Also, I will wear my hair up, I find that my long hair down is like a blanket on my neck/back and makes me all that much warmer/sweatier...

    I really hope that that helps...

    Your experience was very embarrassing. I have a solution:

    why don't you always bring a fan with you in case your very hot

    4 ur face and back always have a towel or handkerchief on your pocket and have a pretty powder to lessen the sweat coz' it can make your face smooth and not sticky.

    and also lessen running coz' it also cause sweat marks on your under arm. Hope my advice will work!! have a good day! and plssss add me on your friends list!!! TC (take care!)
