Does antiperspirant cause breast cancer? NO!!!! Read this...?

Question

I have been rather upset by the number of folks perpetuating this rumor on the Answers they post. Here's a link to show the truth!

http://urbanlegends.about.com/cs/healthmedical/a/antiperspirants.htm

I will give ten points to anyone that can find a medical document on the internet that proves otherwise... Or to whomever has the most ridiculous, most amusing argument for why I should wear a bra...

Great, now my BRA causes breast cancer too??? And, no, I am not a flat-chested dude... Just someone who's tired of being told by the paranoid, sensationalist media that this or that otherwise harmless chemical is going to kill me... Soon they're going to announce that the iodide in table salt causes tooth cancer or something...

Answer 1

I have heard that it is thought to cause early symptoms of Alzheimer's disease.

I do not know the source for this, but just in case anyone get's paranoid I like to use 'Le Stick.' It is made with clay so it prevents sweat and it prevents stench. Other natural deoderants do NOT do both. I personally like to use 'Le Stick' because of the scent of Gardenia.

Answer 2

You will never find a medical document to prove antiperspirant cause breast cancer, but that doesn't mean it doesn't cause breast cancer just means you can't get any medical groups to study it. This rumor could have been perpetuated by the fact that antiperspirant give false readings on mammograms.

But if you read the label on most antiperspirants you would refrain from using them if you had a kidney problem (most labels read "ask a doctor before use if you have a kidney disease).

Don't wear a bra, it is said to cause breast cancer http://www.all-natural.com/bras.html

So use your roll on or stick. you'd be fined

Answer 4

Wear a bra – or you will sag faster and get worse back problems (assuming your not a flat chested dude.)
If you are allergic or have chemical sensitivities your lymphatic system could become increasingly stressed. Also, most UV active chemicals are not a problem until you step into the sunlight.
