You MUST try Lavilin!! I used to have a BO problem and then I tried Lavilin out and it has been absolutely amazing for me! I only use it a couple of times a week and I have no more problems with odor!

I was a heavy sweater from early teen all through my adult life. I had to change shirts 2 and 3 times a day. Wearing a suit was out of the question because I would pit it out in no time. Certain-DRI stopped my sweat problem IMMEDIATELY...it was such a relief. I would highly recommend finding it, even if you have to have it shipped to you.

I understand what you are going through...and there is a brand that really works. It's called Certain Dri, and you used to have to get it from the dermatoligist, however, it is now over the counter. Being that you are in the UK, I'm not sure where you would get it, but check with your pharmacy. I will only add that you DO NOT use it after you have shaved, as it will sting and burn for hours...trust me, I did it by mistake. It's best to use it actually in the evening before you go to bed or shave at night and put it on the morning. It works for a long time, 72 hours. It is an anti-perspirant with prescription strength. Just remember to read the directions thoroughly so you do not cause any redness or harm to your underarm.
Good Luck!

Just check the labelling next time you're in Boots/ supermarket/ wherever and try one which says anti-perspirant as its' main function. We all react differently to the various brands so, expensively, trial and error is the order of the day. Good luck.

i have found that vaseline, aloe vera deoderant works really well. any vaseline really i find really good and great for senstive skin. if you do find that the problem still happens, go to your GP or pharmacy, and see if there are any medical deoderants that they could recommend.
