My armpits really itch. I don't shave under my arms and I really don't need to. I don't know what to do! Help?


Shaving isn't the only thing that can seriously rub you the wrong way.  There are all kinds of tiny little irritants that you may not exactly love.  Lucky for you, trial and error works miracles when it comes to this kind of thing.

Your dilemma is most likely that your bod is reacting to an item that it isn't compatible with.  Think it out, girlie.  Could it be your soap?  Your deodorant?  Your lotion?

For the next few days, swap one of those items out for another version of it.  If you swapped your soap and nothing changed, then you know your soap isn’t the problem.  Then bam, you can move on to the next one.

When you find the culprit, skim through the ingredients.  One of those buddies is the one causing your irritation. Chances are, it’s a chemical-heavy product or a highly fragrant one.

mod mod mod ok so i use degree dance away 24 hour protection as my deodorant but every time i put it on like a hour later there is this big clump of it under my arm

Hey girl, try using a little bit less deodorant and see if that helps.  If it doesn't, consider trying a different type of deodorant until you find one that works best for your bod.  Good luck!

Mod!!!!!
I have a really embarrassing problem. I'm afraid to talk to my mom about it or anyone else. Ok so when I'm at school or anywhere in public my armpits sweat.... A lot. I can't do anything about it! I've tried every deodorant and antiperspirant there is. I take showers every day. The weird thing is it doesn't happen to me at home. I guess it's because I'm nervous. But I'm nervous about not sweating which causes more sweating which causes more nervousness and so on. Help!!! What can I do?!




Hey Girlie,

First off, don't be embarrassed! You're not the only one who's having problems with armpit sweat! You should definitely talk to your mom about this 'cause she might know something you can do to prevent the sweat attacks! I know there are a couple of things you can do medically so once you've talked to your mom, you should have a doc take a look at it! Hope this helps!

MOD MOD MOD:
I have a problem...I SWEAT SOOOOOO MUCH! I'm only 11, i have gotten my period, but I just sweat sooo much! I have tried so many different brands and kinds of deoderent and I still have the problem! It's really embarrassing. Any advice? I couldn't find any article for it!Frown




Hey chica!

Sweating is completely normal and happens to everyone. Deodorants usually combat the bacteria on skin to prevent odors and can only reduce sweating. Here's a post I found to be a helpful read. <3
