    Hi all,
    I am 22 years college girl and living in hostel. I have problems with underarm odor and the only remedy is taking a shower with good water pressure. Is there any another option that can be removed my underarms odor? Your advice will be highly appreciated.

    but if u've had an underarm wax u can't use deoderant right away... u can use talcum powder instead...

    well if u shave ur pitts like most girls then it should probably help alleviate the odour cuz the bacteria wont stay in the hair. If ur 22, ur way past puberty so i guess ull be stuck with this for life. better stop eating those fried greasy oily foods and stock up on Deodorant. i keep a coupla sticks in my bag all the time for other people's sake :)

    Use the advices that is listed above me. :D
    If that dont work, you can see a docter, which might send you over to a dermatologist.

    i've read an article, about someone that had an sweating problem.
    And the docters injected botox to block the signal from the nerve which tells the sweatglands too produce sweat. -_-2

    But I dont think that you should do that,

    Underarm hear provides friction during wet. Sweaty pits feel really nasty without underarm hair. It's best to scrub your pits with some lemon before you shower.

    I've heard that if you use baking soda to clean it, it will clear away the odour. Try that.

    Deodorant is something u roll on under your armpits, it provides day-long protection from excessive perspiration and odour. Deodorant comes in, with or without perfumed. Go get one without perfumed. There are many brand out there in the market , this is one for instance without perfumed.
    http://www.dooyoo.co.uk/body-care/simple-anti-pespirant-deodorant-roll-on/

    How do you apply? Take shower first before you apply, roll it under your armpit, let it dry before wearing clothing. ( deodorant come is dry or wet form , the dry one, you don't have to wait for it to dry before u put on cloth. Its very individual preference. )

    As for shaving, if you are a girl, shaving your armpit can help minimizing moisture for all those bacteria that cause underarm odor. There is no hair there to trap the sweat of your body. Besides girls without armpit hair looks better

    If you are a boy, forget about the shaving part. U wouldn't want not looking masculine right? there again u could still shave if u want to.

    Deodorant helps, give it a try and of cos hygiene is important. One more thing, eat more greens less meat and water water water, you'll be surprise u'll smell less.

    Hope this helps.
