I had the same issue until some one told me about Certain dry. U find it like at Walgreens in Deod section, but It is not deod. what it does is closes the pours on your arm pit so you do not sweat there at all. The odor is caused by persperation. When your pits get wet, the wetness actually forms a bacteria which makes the smell. Stop the wetness, and no bacteria will grow so you will have no odor. I have tried EVERYTHING out there and thought it was a hopeless cause till some one showed me certain dry!! =) good luck to u & if you try certain dry, read the directions and follow exactly!!

**I'm athletic too and do modeling professionally so don't listen to that idiot who called you fat!! The issue has nothing to do w/being heavy it is simply pours producing moisture!!

baking soda <3

some sorta gely spray helps me.

i have heard that baking soda helps...but i would google it

If you don't want deodorant, I don't know what to tell you dear. Try a shower or baby powder.

Skunk or skank?

Try Gillette anti-antiperspirant - It is really good and is made for people with serious problems or for people who workout etc

secret clinical strength

it helped me a lot and i had the same problem

Well regular bathing could help, washing under your pits. Using a strong smelling deodrant or perfume to conquer the odor.

They just came out with this great new deoderant/antiperspirant by Degree...its called clinical care. Its quite expensive at about $8 a stick...but it works great. Made for both men and women alike.

Make sure you shave them regularly, most of the smell is from bacteria that collects on the hair. Baby powder works well, or you could just try to mask it with lots of perfume.

I believe there are prescription anti-perspirants/deoderants out there. Ask your doctor.

try using a different deodorant. i think degree? is better. that is what i used when i was pregnant, and boy did i sweat alot!

you need to wash them with antibacterial soap, then apply antiperspirant... not deodorant

take showers everynight, also use deoterant right when you wake up and then keep on putting it on throughout the day, also if you are embarresed at school go into a bathroom and wet a paper towel and scrubby dub dub your arm pits.

It is common for most people to experience having body odor sometime in their life. Besides masking it with perfumy deodorants, you need to do these things:

You need to shower more than once a day.
Don't ever wear the same clothing you already wore. That only activates the bacteria on the soiled clothing.
Wear all cotton shirts and undershirts. Those breathe better.
Put on the antiperspirant after you shower (duh).

i would wash more often and also go to any pharmasist and ask what he suggests good luck i know you are worried

Okay I know you said no deodorant but if your so afraid use non odor deodorant. It doesn't smell like anything.

One of my daughters had the same problem! What worked for her was:
-showers twice a day; wash with deodorant soap with wash cloth
-change of tops twice a day or if she had P.E. class
-deodorant made for guys, although Dove makes good ones for women
-spray and wash on the underarms of her tops before washing them--this kills any lingering bacteria and removes stains
-deep breathing exercises when anxious to curtail excess sweating

Some people are just great sweaters. If it really becomes a problem, I've heard that you can get Botox injections by a dermatologist in your armpits. It stops sweating/ body odor for up to 6 months.

Drink 8 glasses of water a day, shower/shave daily, use a nice smelling deodorant, (or "re-odorant" as I call it), sometimes mineral salts can help to reduce/prevent sweating.
I also read that Botox injections stop sweating in certaing areas, but that it makes other areas, (i.e. your back), sweat more. The food you eat can surface in your sweat, so a blander diet may also help.

DRYSOL!
you can get it at pretty much any pharmacy, and it actually works. it reduces sweating, so you like don't sweat, barely, and then just use your regular deoderant. it works wonders. :) *

Like u said no deodrants have been helped u. U sound like u have serious sweatin problem. Its not that rare these days. I wud suggest ask a Plastic Surgeon about BOTOX INJECTION. They r not only for cosmetic surgery but also help in severe sweating situations. One Botox Injection will get u through 3-6months depending on ur situation. I hope this info will help.
gud luck.

If you don't want to use deoderant, theres lots of powders out there you can use, that help with the sweat, but other than that, you'll still get the stink, and you'll have to keep re-applying the powder. If you say you don't want to use deoderant because none work, they have a special "clinical" kind out that comes in a box (IDK what its called) and works like magic! If you don't want to use deoderant for the health part... there is special kinds thats all natural and made from salts etc. ANd works good but is pricey just like the clinical kind. If you don't use deoderant make sure you wash regularly! Best of luck dear..

Deodorants are only sprays that mask the smell of perspiration.

Try using ANTI-PERSPIRENTS instead. They help to stop you perspiring.

If you prefer the natural way you can buy ROCK CRYSTALS from any health store. You rub them under your armpits and it is also supposed to help you stop perspiring.
