If you have not tried this Old Spice Bearglove deodorant/antiperspirant, go buy it now. I shower twice a day, using Men’s deodorant anti-bacterial soap, Dial Odor Armor (the bar soap on under arm area and crotch), after drying off, I then use unscented antibacterial ointment to kill the underarm bacterial that are creating the stink from my sweat, and top if off with men’s deodorant & antiperspirant- Old Spice Bearglove. Every time I leave the house I think people can smell me, and I have become an expert noticing when someone can smell my menopause funk. I am into year 2 of menopause and its roller-coaster of hormone fluctuations, hot flashes & weird smells the menopause BO wafting out of my “Hell Pits” and from down there are very embarrassing for me. Big love you warriors and have hope and know this too shall pass □ xx I now make sure I go to the toilet as often as possible (Too many UTI’s) and always carry a water bottle in my bag so I can fill with warm water in sinks and rinse down after every pee (even at work) this has really helped in all areas!! I try not to use any smelly stuff and noticed it was worse with non natural clothes detergent and conditioner, the more smelly the detergent and conditioner the more my body kicked out a pong (almost in protest but think it affected the natural ph) so now use either Ecover or Method- so much better!!! Tea and coffee with dairy milk also made my wee smell! I guess it’s like gut health (all part of the same system) my body was telling me to look after it with more natural maintenance. With regards to the stinky nether regions, that was a shock!! I tried lots of things but quickly realised, the more soaps etc I used the quicker it would come back and more I needed due to change in ph balance. What a blessing this app is!!! I love how open and honest we can be □ I stopped having periods about 5 years ago (aged 46) And went through so many changes in peri and about 2yrs after including the smells and soaking, stinky armpits! Have faith lovelies, it will pass but whilst going through it is crappy (as well as dealing with all the other symptoms) we really are warriors!!! Due to Breast Cancer in the family I had to be careful with what I was putting on my armpits, I stayed away from the brands that were strong, contained aluminium and stopped you perspiring (your breast tissue goes into your pit area) any toxins and sweat need to come out not in and that’s hard especially if at work and your tops are soaked and smelly!!! I used the crystal deodorant and the body shop aloe Vera brand as all the others seem to create a really weird stink □ I can now (after a few years of no periods) wear shirts again! Have faith! ![]()
