I stink AIBU

😂😂😂 aged horny men. Kinda want to smell it now!!!

Things I’ve read on here:

1. Driclor Deo - used myself as a teen
2. sure cream stick deo - use now and it’s good
3. bamboo clothing - boody is great. Bedding too from m&s
4. do you eat lots of onion and garlic - try cutting down.

sounds like it good be hormonal? Maybe GP to check bloods and any other underlying issues

Old Spice stick deodorant is the ONLY thing that keeps me dry. It's been a game changer. They do a really nice range of scents...I can recommend Bearglove, Rockstar and Ocean Spray (or something similar along those lines). Night Panther smells like aged horny men so don't bother trying that one.

Perspirex!! I got a recommendation for this years ago (maybe on here).

You put it on at night after a shower and only need to reapply twice a week to maintain it. I don't even sweat under my armpits anymore, it's amazing stuff.

It could be that the smell has sunk into your clothes.

I used to find the smell would get stuck in the clothes. We now have a small scoop of bio powder in the pre-wash, liquid non bio in the main wash and laundry sanitiser in the softener section and it seems to do the trick. We also dry outside as much as possible so the UV in the sun can assist.

Are you using bio detergent? non bio is really just mild fragrance, no cleaning power beyond water. “allergies” to bio are really a uk thing, about 95% of people are not sensitive to the bio components but to perfume in the detergent. try another brand.
And do you have cotton (pure, not poly cotton) clothes? Synthetic clothes hold smells.

Do you drink a lot of water?

rub lemons on your underarm before you shower

Seconding Botox in the underarms.

I was sick of ruining delicate tops so had it done - about £300 on Harley St. Lasted 9 months.

Rexona is better, but neither are probably good for op. She needs to see the doctor, but also use deodorant for excessive sweating. Dove is really not going to cut it.

I had a really bad phase and kept it under control with radox shower gel and Mitchum roll on. Bar soap was useless for me. If clothes have old deodorant stains it won't work. Also it's no good washing the night before. Has to be in the morning. Wear cotton.

Failing that look at what you're eating and drinking. Try avoiding garlic, alcohol and see what helps. If if could be hormonal, what could you do to change that? I didn't realise that it might well have been linked to my lifestyle at the time.

Wear Uniqlo airism cami tops and pants under your clothes. They wick sweat away from your skin and stop sweat from getting in to your outer wear. Change them regularly obviously.

I just Googled it, as I used to have this problem, here's what it said:

What is the best deodorant to stop sweating UK?

If regular antiperspirants do not control your excessive sweating, a strong antiperspirant containing Aluminium Chloride is usually the first line of treatment. Anhydrol Forte (roll on), Odaban (spray) and Driclor (roll on) are sold in most chemists or on-line, and are available on a prescription from your GP.

Witch hazel on a cotton pad on armpits and any sweaty places after your shower. Then Mitchum deodorant

Worth a gp appointment, I'd say op

I agree but all my clothes would be ruined washing them at 60! I recommend a bio detergent,that's most important and wash as hit as the label recommends.

Are your T-shirts/tops really clean? If not when you wear them and they warm up from your body heat, the stench of BO will be released. Wash them at 60 degrees using powder (not liquid or gel pods), wash bras every day (spot wash with a bar of soap before putting in the machine if you don’t want to wash them at 60), dry thoroughly before putting away.

you could potentially get botox injections in your arpits if they are the big culprit.

Plus one for hibiscrub. You can wash with it (good for whiffy feet, too) but I dilute it 50-50 with water in a travel spray bottles and spray under my arms after a shower then when it's dry use my dove stick.

I have an older disabled dc who sweats a lot and gets smelly. I agree with layering the products. Also is the smell "staying" in your clothes? We had this problem and frankly one stinky t shirt would make the whole wash load smell! I tried all sorts of strategies and have settled on adding dettol sanitiser to each wash load.

I used to stink but after losing a few stone I don’t anymore. When I did, I tried everything and the best one was sure sport. Shower at night then lots on.

By the sounds of it you are peri menopause I have what you describe so do my friends unfortunately welcome to the club😬👊

Yes i am also sweaty and stinking in this heat.

I shower, put on deoderant, and i stink ten minutes later

Detol bar soap stopped me smelling stale and musty.
glycolic acid wiped on armpits helps kill bacteria that’s causes the smell.
is there sweat/old deodorant on your clothes trapping in the sweaty smell? If so white vinegar sprayed on and left to soak freshens it up.
I’m a sweaty person. I have to layer anti perspirants so I just the cream kind first then a spray.
I can’t wear anything tight against my skin or I feel sweaty and stressed then I sweat more.
I only shower in the morning or I shower at night if I’ve been really sweaty
i sometimes use driclor that literally stops sweat. Apply it on clean, dry skin (and make sure skin is bone dry, I use a hair drier on cool) then let the deodorant dry properly before going to sleep
stops any sweat for a few days each application

Worth a try is Dove anti perspirant and deodorant crème stick
