How do you get armpit, yellow sweat stains out of clothes?

Friday, October 16th, 2009

I have tried the following: bleach, bleach pen, dish soap, tide pen, tide soap, peroxcide, drying in the sun, lemon juice, white vingear -all these have not worked…help!

Yellow underarm shirt stains are likely caused by a combination of deodorant and perspiration. Many deodorants and antiperspirants contain aluminum salts. When these salts are combined with laundry detergent, especially in cooler water settings, they are not easily dissolved, and they remain on the fabric.

To remove the stains, try soaking the shirts in warm water with an enzyme pre-soak product or rubbing the soiled area with white vinegar. Wash in the hottest water safe for the fabric. If the stain remains, dampen and sprinkle stain with meat tenderizer. Let stand for about an hour, and launder again.

To avoid new stains from forming, always wash the shirts in the hottest water safe for the fabric. Also, allow antiperspirant to dry completely before dressing.:)

How do you stop the sweat coming from armpit?

How do you stop sweat coming from your armpit? do you guys have some kind of traditional ways or modern ways that dont cost a lot of money?

The best way to do this is to use an antiperspirant. Deodorants and antiperspirants are usually found in the same section at the store so be sure to choose one that says "antiperspirant" since the two are quite different. A deodorant helps remove the smell of sweat, while an antiperspirant will actually block the production of sweat using a mix of wax, liquid emollients and aluminum compounds.

Many people will also agree that sticks work better than a spray.

What can be done about excess armpit sweat?

how do i stop my excessive armpit sweat?

Wednesday, October 14th, 2009

i heard it was called hyperhidrosis and i know i have it. i usually sweat on my hands, feet, and mostly my underarms. i’ve heard about certain dri and how it worked great for people, but then i saw other questions that had answers like it was gross or something. so if you are a extreme sweater like me, do you use certain dri and does it work?

I suffer from the same problem, its called hyperhydrosis and basically our sweat glands are overactive in specific regions. For example I have it on the palms of my hands whilst you have it under your arms. some people get botox injections beneath their arms but they’re pretty expensive and only last a certain number of months. There’s also a surgical procedure but i’ve heard its also temporary and side effects may arise. I used drysol for my hands, its kind of a roll on deodorant by prescription. It does sort of work but it made my hands itch whenever they started to sweat a little, but it might work better for you. I’d say your best bet is a prescription deodorant and consult your doctor for further treatment.

Hope it helped !

How to reduce armpit sweat?

Sunday, October 11th, 2009

I tend to get big sweat stains (not HUGE, but if I raise my arm it is definatly noticleable) under my armpits when I am at school. It doesn’t happen usually at home. I have tried using an antipersperant called Dry along with my normal deoderant. I don’t think I have hyperhidrosis (or whatever its called), because it is only on my armpits and it’s not that extreme.

Any help to stop the sweating?

until you find something that works, you should wear clothing that doesn’t make it obvious. like black shirts, or patterned/striped shirts. also certain materials do not show wetness.

good luck and hope i helped some. that happened to me when i was young, but i grew out of it. i’m sure you will too! =)

Is there any other ways to stop armpit sweat other than using an antiperspirant?

Friday, October 9th, 2009


Try the clinical strength antiperspirant first (I recommend Secret for ladies)

It would probably be unhealthy to dehyrate yourself, but that could also reduce how much you sweat.

Ask your doctor about any medications if he or she thinks you have overactive sweat glands

As a last resort you could look into surgery to remove your armpit sweat glands
