Profuse sweating, stinky B.O. What could this be???

So never in my life have I sweat just sitting there. My whole body will flush and BAM! I am sweating from my head to my FEET!!! But what really bothers me is the embarrassing puddles of stinky BO under my armpits. Deoderant doesn't even work. This all started a couple weeks before I started Birth control pills. What's going on?

Welcome to the lovely world of hot flashes!  Looks like your hormones are doing the tango!  Talk to your dr for some relief.

No, not really.  If your hormones are unbalanced, then it is completely possible to have these hotflashes.  What you are having are hormonal surges.  Please talk to your dr.  Perhaps the pill that you are on is not the right strength for you.  I hope you find relief soon.
