Hey Bro,

I can understand that you must feel self concious at times, if not embarassed. I used to suffer from excessive underarm sweating, particualrly when I was going through puberty and it used to bother me. You may be suffering from hyperhidrosis, or you may just sweat a little and then when you feel it, you begin to panic or worry, causing you to sweat more. It's nothing to do with personal hygiene or lack of it, nor can it be solved through "scrubbing".

I suggest you make a visit to Boots and purchase "Driclor". It's about £6.50 and you apply it last thing at night to your underarms before you sleep and then wash it off whilst you shower the next day. You have to continue applying underarm everyday, but you'll soon see major improvements - i did after the first application. Continue to apply it everynight, until your sweating stops and you can then just use normal underarm.

Hope that helps and let me know how you get on.

All the best,

Vaaheguroo Jee Kaa Khaalsaa Vaaheguroo Jee Kee Fateh

Thankyou for your responses!

@Singh559 Yup, I actually have heard non-sikhs making jokes about this..... but this is actually a serious problem for me :/ I won't be posting a photo lol, there is a reason I posted in the gupt section ahahah.

I make sure I bathe daily, and I use all sorts of soaps, deodorants, antiperspirants, etc. I drink lots of water everyday, I'm cutting down on my sugar intake and I try to work out often to sweat it all out and clear my sweat glands, but nothing seems to work.

Deodorants don't help because BO + deodorant does not equal a good smell...

I suspect that I might have hyperhidrosis, so I have ordered a similar anitperspirant to 'driclor' called 'certain dri'. I'll be using this and i hope it will make a difference.

I'm just hoping that this is something that i'll grow out of soon.. considering i'm only 18 atm.

Thanks again everyone :D.

There are causes that are external, ie bad hygiene or bacteria on skin, and internal causes too, like a bad liver. Sometimes the body can't get rid of toxins becuase the liver is so overloaded. So it removes the toxins through other ways, like sweat. Use Dr. Schulze's Liver Cleanse and eat more fruits and veggies. Cut out the bad foods, especially cheese and other stuff that the body has trouble getting rid of.

I know it's been a really long time since this post was made, but who knows, maybe I'll be able to help someone else.

I'm a female Sikh and don't cut my hair either. I've always had a problem with body odor, ever since I was about 12 or 13. I don't remember how, but I somehow got informed about crystal deos. They tackle the bacteria, which is what causes the body odor in the first place. It doesn't have any smell or perfume, it just eliminates body odor. 

Hope I could help

    • yeh it's true, we shouldn't be lazy and need to learn jhatka shikaar. It doesn't help some of grew up in surrounding areas like Slough and Southall where everyone thought it was super bad for amrit dharis to eat meat, and they were following Sant babas and jathas, and instead the Singhs should have been normalising jhatka just like the recent world war soldiers did. We are trying to rectifiy this and khalsa should learn jhatka.  But I am just writing about bhog for those that are still learning rehit. As I explained, there are all these negative influences in the panth that talk against rehit, but this shouldn't deter us from taking khanda pahul, no matter what level of rehit we are!
    • How is it going to help? The link is of a Sikh hunter. Fine, but what good does that do the lazy Sikh who ate khulla maas in a restaurant? By the way, for the OP, yes, it's against rehit to eat khulla maas.
    • Yeah, Sikhs should do bhog of food they eat. But the point of bhog is to only do bhog of food which is fit to be presented to Maharaj. It's not maryada to do bhog of khulla maas and pretend it's OK to eat. It's not. Come on, bro, you should know better than to bring this Sakhi into it. Is this Sikh in the restaurant accompanied by Guru Gobind Singh ji? Is he fighting a dharam yudh? Or is he merely filling his belly with the nearest restaurant?  Please don't make a mockery of our puratan Singhs' sacrifices by comparing them to lazy Sikhs who eat khulla maas.
    • Seriously?? The Dhadi is trying to be cute. For those who didn't get it, he said: "Some say Maharaj killed bakras (goats). Some say he cut the heads of the Panj Piyaras. The truth is that they weren't goats. It was she-goats (ਬਕਰੀਆਂ). He jhatka'd she-goats. Not he-goats." Wow. This is possibly the stupidest thing I've ever heard in relation to Sikhi.
    • Instead of a 9 inch or larger kirpan, take a smaller kirpan and put it (without gatra) inside your smaller turban and tie the turban tightly. This keeps a kirpan on your person without interfering with the massage or alarming the masseuse. I'm not talking about a trinket but rather an actual small kirpan that fits in a sheath (you'll have to search to find one). As for ahem, "problems", you could get a male masseuse. I don't know where you are, but in most places there are professional masseuses who actually know what they are doing and can really relieve your muscle pains.
