Maybe you're just stronger now.

--On an unrelated note, I've been using Mitchem anti-perspirant for a few years since it was the closest thing I could find that would at least occasionally control my hog-inspired armpit sweat glands, but that's being generous (to the deodorant). The last couple days, I've been using that Degree prescription strength stuff, and it works like a charm--I was dry (under my arms) outside in the rain today, at the gym most of the time, sometimes even in the shower. Just hope nothing gets clogged in there.

Two words -- Certain Dri. It used to be prescription, now it's OTC. about $5-6 per bottle (the drug store brand is even cheaper and identical), and once you've applied it a few times, you're good for about a week. In fact, in cooler weather, I use it every 10 days. I take it down to 7 or so as the weather warms up. Because you use it so infrequently, a bottle lasts for months. A lotta months.
Read the instructions. It's not like a regular antiperspirant. Also, continue to use a normal antiperspirant to keep your pits from smelling. This only helps to keep them dry, not stench free. Despite the fact that you are dry, deodorant doesn't work well (at least for me), so I continue to use a daily antiperspirant (like Right Guard clear gel).
Oh, if you have sweaty palms, apply it by squeezing a tiny puddle into your right palm, then apply to your left pit, rubbing it all around. Repeat for the other side. Two problems solved.
I've used it for about 10 years. Several forum members use it, too. It's like a miracle in a bottle.
