It's bacteria under there and you need rubbing alcohol. carry around those little packets with alcohol cloths in your pocket. Alcohol kills everything.

The best thing to do is get a deoderant made for men. Perferably the kind without a scent (so you don't smell like a man). Men's deodoarant is a lot stronger, and if deodorant doesn't work, go all out and buy anti-perspirant. And don't feel weird, I know lots of females that use men's deodorant

Poor you. Here are some suggestions....
1. make sure your clothing is washed frequently as the clothes retain the odour after wearing
2. wear breathable fabrics like cotton
3. you are correct to wash daily with soap. Wash them throughout hte day over the sink as well.
4. choose an anti deodorant vs anti perspirant
5. drink lots of water - this helps dilute smells.
6. are you the only one who notices this odor or do others?
7. speak with your MD about this so he can check out your endocrine system.
Good luck.

Shave. Bacteria lives on the hair under the arm. If you shave and you still stink bad then change your habits. Smelly sweat is toxins coming out of your body. Stop smoking, or drinking or not drinking enough water or whatever yer doing.

Use coast soap to wash, and for deoderant, try plain scent Secret, I know they say it's only for women, but it's the only thing that works for my teenage son.

Mitchum used to work for me years ago, but it stopped working. I now use Degree and it does work. Try it, you have nothing to lose. Even my daughter found nothing that worked, but started using Degree and it works for her.
