Body Oder

Hi,

I am 25 years old and have noticed lately i have terrible body oder nearly every day. I can remember going through puberty ect and you kind of expect it then but now i dont think i should have this problem!!!
I shower every day and use anti persperent deodrant..
Its quite warm in my office so i often have to waer a light top, but i can always feel my underarms getting wet & smelly!
I have in the last 4 months stoped taking the contraceptive pill.. could this be whats caused my BO?

Has anyone else had similar symptoms after stopping the pill.. ?

I think i will have to start taking some under arm wipes or something as it cant be nice for my coleuges, boyfriend ect.. LOL

Any advice would be appreciated,

Changes like this need to be evaulated by your doctor. Hyperhidrosis (excess sweat) isn't generally dangerous, but it may be secondary to something else.  Take a look here for more information: https://health.google.com/health/ref/Hyperhidrosis

Please make sure you are adequately hydrating yourself and touch base with your doctor. Sooner rather than later, please!  Good luck and keep us posted!
