Answer 1

You are not alone a lot of people have the same problem. The way to keep your clothes from getting stained is use pads that you can buy to cover the armpits of clothing. I have heard that taking alfafa tablets purchased at a herbal store work. Drinking lots of water and using wet wipes when you can to keep the odor down, then use Degree deodrant, it works for me tho' I don't have excessive odor. Also to keep stains off t-shirts before you wash them spray clorax cleanup on them, it works great on any white clothing I have used it on. You can also check with your doctor to see if they have any suggestions. I have heard that some foods can cause people to have excess sweating and odor. Good luck and God Bless, Elle

Answer 2

Try using an anti-bacterial/deoderant soap like Dial or a soap w/ tea tree oil. Tea tree oil is a natural anti-bacterial.

Be gentle - do not over scrub & irritate your skin.

There are also natural crystal deoderants that inhibit bacterial growth. e.g. http://www.thecrystal.com/

As others have mentioned, body hair traps sweat & provides a haven for bacteria. You should also avoid strong spices, onion & garlic which adds to b.o.

It sounds like you might be scrubing to much. Sounds weird I know, but the more you scrub and dry out your skin the more you body wants to try to keep it hydrated. Keep it clean but dont go to over board. Try that new Secret, they say its precription strength and theres a money back guarntee if it doesnt work.

Answer 4

Your sweating too much. Drink more water, eat less salty foods and keep a portable fan maybe with you while you excercise or go to P.E., just tell your Gym teacher it's too hot and use the fan. Take some breaks at excerising if you need to. Use scented deodorants, maybe a new one.

Answer 5

you might be allergic to deorderant. In which case talk to your doctor on alternatives. Otherwise it sounds like you need a stronger one. next time you go buy some ask a person who works there for the one that works the best
