Peinliche Körpergerüche

i don't know if it is menopause caused, but in the last year, i have noticed that i have a nasty body odor. i do have other health problems, it could be caused by them, but was wondering if anyone out there has noticed this change since menopause started. 

I understand that sweating is a natural and helps the body stay cool and eliminate toxins and it supports proper immune function, prevents diseases related to toxic overload, kills certain viruses and bacteria and cleans the skin’s pores . . . I get all that, but why is it stinking so much now?  

I am not concerned about it, just courious.

Your thoughts?

I have noticed a sweaty smell, it's not a BO smell but just a funny sweaty smell

that no never had before particularly noticeable by me when I wake up in the morning but it's all over,even on my arms!!

Just to share with you ladies the "Dove" or "Sure" maximum protection deodorant £5 is brilliant!! We are all a similar age in work and wear white uniforms..wouldn't be without it!!

i read that dehydration can cause it and certain foods, but the only food on the list that i use on occasion is hot pepper powder. i drink alot, i thought!

thanks for the advice 🙏

Hi Dee,

Yes I think what we eat can affect how we smell. I've mentioned previously, when I was suffering with the night sweats I tried meno pace night which had the ingredient hops. I would wake sweating in the night and couldn't decide if I smelled like a brewery or bakery! Very weird.

I remember my mum used to put talc in her knickers which I thought strange and my gran always smelled of palma violets. She had sweeties and perfume with her always.

The things we have to put up with!

Hallo dee, ja, das wird durch hormonelle Schwankungen des Östrogens verursacht. Trinke Wasser mit Zitrone, um deinen pH-Wert zu neutralisieren. Ich habe sogar Teststreifen besorgt, um meinen pH-Wert täglich zu testen. Bleibe hydriert, aber füge Zitronensaft hinzu, um den Körpergeruch zu bekämpfen. Ich habe festgestellt, dass Babypuder mein Retter für den Geruch war. Du kannst Babypuder, Maisstärke (kein Talkum) auf deinen Körper auftragen, bis der Geruch nachlässt. Ich habe es sogar in meine Kopfhaut eingerieben, weil der Geruch so schlimm war. Das Pulver neutralisiert den Geruch oder du kannst ein gut riechendes Trockenshampoo verwenden, um den Geruch zu beseitigen. Es hilft wirklich, wenn du in enger Nähe zu Menschen bei der Arbeit bist. Hoffentlich hilft das.

Oh that is so funny, beer pits, yum!  My gram always smelled like mothballs. Probably because she used them in her drawers to keep moths away, but still . . . what a memory!  thanks! 

good ideas! thank you i guess i am grateful for not being able to work. i sure don't want to offend anyone senses! 

Thank you, I never would have thought abotu cornstarch!  Great cheap idea without stinky things!

 

LOL, nach einer Brauerei riechen Maisielol!!!   Ich wette, dein Mann hat es trotzdem gemocht!   xx

Yes, for months I get I smell and my body odour is awful. Before peri I hardly ever sweat. It is a bit better now. But it has gone for months. So yes I say it is very normal, unfortunately! Good luck with your new body odour

thank you

Hi Dee,

One of the first symptoms I experienced was really vile strong-smelling feet, even the dog would slink away if I so much as slipped my shoes off. Happily, the symptoms and problems caused by the curse of the menopause really don't last forever (it just feels that way). Look forward to joining us in the "Survivors Club"

Oh my! Stinly feet, I had that a while back, i stopped wearing socks and only wore sandles that could be hosed off. that lasted about 3 years, but i noticed i have not had that of late and I've been wearing socks AND boots w/o stinky. now i am afraid to hug people. I sniff my pits throughout the day now all the time . . . soooo self conscience! haha!!

yesterday i bought some deoderant for the first time in 20+ years. it helped a lot! 

surviors club, i can't wait to graduate!  Thanks!
