Hi hun
In my teens this started happening to me as well, I was always so embarrassed. I was diagnosed with hyperhydrosis which is over active sweat glands.
I had perspirex and driclor on prescription but it used to burn and itch like hell. In my mid 20s I was offered botox on the NHS and it's amazing. My under arms were bone dry for about 8 months.
I had it about 6 times and now I don't get it anymore but I don't sweat half as much. I also pay for Botox in my forehead for this reason as well.
As has been said try the perspirex first as it is really good but if it doesn't work then botox is an option but it is extremely painful as you have many many injections in each arm pit.
