Menopause changes in body odour (armpits).

Have you noticed any changes?

How do deal with them?

Best deodorants? 

Yeah, just another symptom to add to the list.....as if its not long enough already!!!

Solution = having got one I'm afraid. I just change deodorant frequently in the hope I find one that works well. Resort to using my ol' man's at certain times!!

I make a conscious effort to pre-wash the armpits of all my tops too a the w/machine still struggles to cope with them at 50°!!

Just have to take my sister's lead and wear cotton/linen tops, take her fan out with her.....and a deodorant in her bag!!!

(Mitchem is ssupposed to be good - unless you're me!!) - the original Sweaty Betty!!!:-)

 I'm trying cider vinegar... but I don't enjoy the smell either!

Yes, just like when we went through puberty, there is a phase where body odor is Unique at best. I used a "prescription" strength deoderant after my daily shower. I also ordered and tried a stainless steel bar (the ones used for hands to remove onion/garlic smells) it helped to get rid of odor prior to applying deoderant. That phase came and went pretty quick for me. Who knows if it'll return-sure hope not!

 

I use mens solid deoderants,the stick type. They seem to work better. I like sure for men! 

Cheers! Any suggestions welcome!

we're becoming blokelike...

Aye, a fat one!

Yes, I definitely found this a problem and was going to the loos at lunchtime to wash and re-fresh deodarant.  Mitchum did it for me eventually.  Hope this helps .. the bad odour disappears .... my partner didn't notice it, if this helps, I think we notice it more, but that doesn't help our peace of mind.  Try Mitchum. x

Thanks!
