Sweaty Armpits – What To Do If You Start Sweating On A Date
Have you ever been afraid to go on dates because of your sweaty armpits? I used to feel the same way. Let me tell you about my turning point that made me start researching ways to control my armpit sweat.
-
Picture this scenario: Dinner….candles…hot date…armpit sweat. Which one of these things doesn’t belong? If you guessed armpit sweat, you’re absolutely correct. And I’m not talking about just a little bit of armpit sweat; it was like a monsoon in my armpits. I could actually feel the sweat dripping down the sides of my body. I tried to keep my calm, but I knew if I lifted my arms, my date would see huge wet marks on my armpits. I excused myself and rushed to the bathroom to assess the damage. Sure enough, the sweat marks from my armpit sweat were growing with every passing second. I knew I couldn’t make it through the rest of the night like this, so I found our waiter, paid the bill and snuck out of the restaurant. Thankfully my date and I had driven to the restaurant separately, and before I knew what I was doing, I was driving home.
-
A few minutes later, when I worked up the nerve, I called my date and made up a story about how I was pretty sure I had gotten food poisoning and I had to go home. As you probably guessed, we never went out again. To this day, I still kick myself for walking out on that date.

I hope no one has to go through what I did while trying to cope with my sweaty armpits. I know there are many different types of hyperhidrosis treatments on the market, but sometimes there are emergency situations and you need a fast acting solution to your armpit sweat. Hopefully, with these tips will be useful, and the next time you are on a date, you will be able to control your excessive sweating.
-
Staying hydrated is one of the best hyperhidrosis treatments. With this in mind, I would suggest ordering an ice cold water as soon as you sit down to dinner, and I would avoid drinks with caffeine and alcohol. Those types of drinks will only cause your body temperature to rise and will probably cause your armpits to sweat more.
-
Applying cornstarch, baby powder or talcum to armpits prior to your date will help soak up excess moisture. This is embarrassing to admit, but once I was out to dinner with some friends, and nothing I did seemed to calm my armpit sweat. I left the table, and asked a waiter if I could have some cornstarch. I went to the bathroom and used paper towels to apply it to my armpits, and the sweating stopped!
-
If your armpits start to sweat, it is a good idea to excuse yourself to the bathroom as quickly as possible. Try not to be awkward about this though. Your date will be able to tell if you are uncomfortable. Once you’re in the bathroom, you can run cold water on paper towels and put them under your arms. This should help to cool off your armpits and stop the sweat. After you feel cooler, use dry paper towels to dry off your underarms and hurry back to your date!

I hope these tips give you the confidence to get back to dating and enjoying your life!
Sweaty Armpits Causing You Problems? Obsess No More!
I’ve noticed that a lot of websites on the internet address the problem of excessively sweaty armpits (hyperhidrosis). There are a lot of “natural” treatments, but I also realized that there are several fairly “aggressive” hyperhidrosis treatments.

During the course of my research, I actually discovered a fantastic natural approach to treating armpit sweat that didn’t require any of these more drastic methods. It has really made my life so much easier and restored my confidence. You really need to get this ebook if you want to cure overly sweaty armpits.

However, I know how much of a struggle it can be to find solutions that are effective in hindering armpit sweating. Since I had already taken the time to research these methods, I decided I would share what I found.
-
There are some prescription strength antiperspirants that can assist in providing temporary relief from underarm sweat. These antiperspirants work best when they have been on the affected area for six to eight hours. With this is mind, the optimal time to apply these products is at nighttime before going to bed. You will want to make sure that you follow the directions very closely. The downside is that prolonged, repeated application can lead to severe irritation to the underarm area.
-
One approach that I wasn’t very familiar with was the option of taking oral medication as a hyperhidrosis treatment. These medications actually block the nerve impulses that connect to the sweat glands, and as a result, less sweat is produced. These treatments can be effective; however, the results can be accompanied with side effect ranging from dry mouth to blurred vision.
-
You might have heard of a lot of celebrities getting Botox treatments to help with their sweaty armpits. Yes, even celebrities suffer from armpit sweat! The Botox treatment for armpits works pretty much the same way that Botox for wrinkles works. A local anesthetic is rubbed onto the area to be treated, and the Botox is injected into several areas. Although sweating is greatly reduced, you should be advised that sweating does not completely stop, but most patients usually see an 80-90% decrease in armpit sweat. The process is fairly expensive, and there is no guarantee that you will not feel pain. I would definitely recommend talking to your doctor prior to pursuing Botox for hyperhidrosis treatment to see if it is right for you.
-
Some people turn to acupuncture to treat hyperhidrosis. Although you may be desperate to find a solution for your sweaty armpits, I strongly advise against seeking treatment from a non licensed practitioner. There have been reports of severe infections and even punctured organs from acupuncture that is performed incorrectly.
-
Sympathectomy is another term for having surgery to treat armpit sweating. Two small incisions are made under in each armpit, and the surgeon identifies and removes the glands that are responsible for hyperhidrosis. It is important to remember that although it may seem minor, sympathectomy is in fact a surgical procedure, and does have its share of side effects, including compensatory sweating. This means that to compensate for the removal of the sweat glands in one area of the body, another part of the body may start to experience excessive sweating.
-
I hope this was helpful, and that you will be able to find a treatment just as effective as the one I discovered. Everyone deserves to feel confident in their own skin.

Sweaty Armpits And The Doctor
I’m going to be really short here :)
Hyperhidrosis can be a really embarrassing problem so that’s why a lot of people suffering from this condition are not
perfectly relaxed in most social situations and especially in encounters with strangers.
This is one of the main reasons why most people, who suffer from sweaty armpits, won’t visit their doctor. Usually it’s so embarrassing to them they won’t even speak about it to their closest ones, let alone doctors.
If you haven’t visited your doctor yet I strongly urge you to make an appointment as soon as possible.
They’ll be able to advise you on a lot of stuff and most importantly they’ll be able to (hopefully) pinpoint the exact reason why you’re sweating so much. May just be that you’re not suffering from hyperhidrosis after all since there are a bunch of other diseases that cause excessive sweating.
Do yourself a favor and go visit a doctor. Seriously, if I managed to go and see my doctor about a haemorrhoid problem (one of the most embarrassing experiences in my life) I once had…let me tell you that sweaty armpits compared to hemorrhoids are a walk in the park.
If still in doubt, just ask yourself this question: “What’s the worst that could happen?”
