Posting on behalf of teen DD

She has hyperhidrosis and is really struggling at the moment. Mitchum was her go to for a long time but it stopped working for her last year.. then switched to Dove Advanced spray which again worked very well for a while but has now gone down the same path. Driclor/Perspirex have been effective in the past but she can no longer tolerate the irritation that it causes.

Does anyone have any other suggestions? I’m thinking that we’ll have to go down the Botox route again - she had it a few years ago and it was brilliant, no sweat whatsoever for a few months. I just don’t really have the £700 to fund it at the moment so any alternative would be very welcome..

There aren't any, IME. Anti perspirants work, but the Aluminium wrecks clothes. Deodorants seem to do bugger all.
