I’ve beaver been noticeably sweaty (neither moisture or smell!).

Since I’ve hit menopause, oh boy, my pits are a law unto themselves.

I’ve tried hairless/hair pits. Spray antiperspirants. Cream and or stick antiperspirants. Alum rock. De floriststionising (is that even a word!!) the pit area via salt scrubs, turmeric scrubs, and good old antibacterial washing.

These days, I’m wet in the pit area within a half hour of showering and antiperspirant application.

Any insight?

Have you tried PerspireX? I use the strong one. You use it every evening for about a week and then once per week- but your pits HAVE TO BE BONE DRY. Like, hair dryer if need be.

The stuff changed my life.

Second perspirex. In the evening, don't wear a top you don't mind being ruined.
