I've tried bleach, Tide with bleach, and all that but it still doesn't come out. HOW?!?!?! It's because of my deoderant.

Yellow underarm shirt stains are likely caused by a combination of deodorant and perspiration. Many deodorants and antiperspirants contain aluminum salts. When these salts are combined with laundry detergent, especially in cooler water settings, they are not easily dissolved, and they remain on the fabric.
To remove the stains, try soaking the shirts in warm water with an enzyme pre-soak product or rubbing the soiled area with white vinegar. Wash in the hottest water safe for the fabric. If the stain remains, dampen and sprinkle stain with meat tenderizer. Let stand for about an hour, and launder again.
To avoid new stains from forming, always wash the shirts in the hottest water safe for the fabric. Also, allow antiperspirant to dry completely before dressing.=)

perspiration stains really get to you. Hears what you do. Take a basin or bucket or in your washing machine. Add 2 cups of white vinegar and put enough water for a small wash, then agitate a little and shut it down. Let the shirts soak overnight and then run them through the cycle . Now give then a good wash with your detergent that should do it.

I work out often and my gym clothes take a beating. I use oxyclean spray (look in the laundry section of the store), spray the offending areas with oxyclean, rub it in by rubbing the cloth together, wait for 8-10 minutes, then wash it in hot water and your choice of detergent. Bleach is good, but after a while your whites while get a yellowish tinge to them. If you use a clothesline to dry your clothes, the sun will naturally bleach/whiten the clothes as they dry, too.

it's a combo of your oils, the detergent, and the shirt's material. use them as cleaning rags or donate them.
