deodorant

Since becoming pregnant no deodorant and i mean no deodorant seems to work. Ive tried secrect, degree, clinical deodorants all types, dove and many more but after about 4 hours i become funky and stink . Is anyone else experiencing this? Why do you think this happen?

I started using my husband's degree deodorant a long time ago because nothing held. It worked well but I also switch up between that and the wet version of mitchum in ladies. That seems to hold longer. If you use one too long your body gets use to it. Also when you apply deodorant, make sure you're already completely dry.

Maybe go old school, use a moist towelette if at work or warm wash cloth at home to freshenup and reapply. It could be part of a cleansing and recentering ritual rather on a focus on odor.

That's a common problem in pregnancy.  It's the hormones that make it happen.  There is a deodorant called CertainDri. It's a roll-on liquid.  It's very strong. You'll only need to use it 2-3 times per week and just use your regular deodorant the rest of the days.
