Yes-Mitchum roll on is the best! ?

I used to have this problem when younger but found Mitchum very effective - it was a godsend. I think it’s still available.
Ordinary anti-perspirants were frankly useless.

It'd be a bonus if I broke out in a sweat as right now I'm perishing cold. The sun shining in the back kitchen is no good to me when I'm in the living room, it's wasted out there.grin

Have you had blood tests to check your thyroid?

If it happens even though you use an antiperspirant, I think you should take medical advice. My understanding is that most people perspire far less as they age.

If you are diabetic you find it more difficult to regulate temperature. Just an idea not all diabetics are fat and unhealthy.

No because I use an antiperspirant and have no problems. Am I missing something?
