Today, it's so insanely hot that no matter how often I shower or use deodorant the smell of my armpits makes me feel physically sick. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, despite using deodorant religiously and showering twice a day, my roommate still smells so bad that every time she enters the room I become physically sick. FML
Today, it’s extremely hot, so showering and deodorant does fuck all for my odor. I thought I could get away with having my arms pressed to my sides at all times, but instead, a boy I don’t even know physically lifted my arms above my head and loudly declared that I stank. FML
Today, my natural body odor has gotten so bad that despite wearing 20 swipes of men’s deodorant under each armpit and taking three showers a day with an entire bottle of body wash, I still smell like a cross between onions and hot garbage. I’m a woman. FML
Today, multiple customers have complained about my body odor. Not only can I not smell anything, but I shower three times a day and brush my teeth seven times a day. FML
Today, I realised in the middle of my shift how useless my deodorant is in the stifling heatwave spreading through my country. It's no longer effective against my awful B.O., which is a problem because I'm a mascot, and my costume traps the smell inside like a portable toilet. FML
Today, my mom yelled at me because even though I shower thoroughly twice a day, I still stink. My mom showers once a week, never wears deodorant, and smells like roses. FML
Today, I realized my morbidly obese, sweaty sibling is the source of a strange waft I've been smelling when I get home. He'll only shower once a week, so the apartment and furniture smell like sweat and sometimes poo, especially on hot days. I didn't notice until I went outside and stepped back in to follow my nose. FML
Today, I'm so chronically sleep-deprived that I sprayed a bathroom air freshener under my arms instead of my deodorant. FML
Today, I've tried literally every possible brand of antiperspirant deodorant available to me in my area. I went to the bathroom to discover I'd pitted out my favorite shirt. It's mild weather, I have done nothing active, and I'm not stressed. My body just loves to make me sweat. FML
Today, I had to use anti-perspirant deodorant under my breasts. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Has this happened before? Cause if not, even if it's hot, a sudden ramping up of the severity of body odor can be a sign of something wrong. You may want to see your physician, just in case.

What you need to do is wash your armpite with anti-bacterial soap a few times and the problem is solved. Trust me.

I use the clinical strength deodorant. I 'm not sure if it's available where you are, but it's great!

Try a powder like Gold Bond or my go to choice Anti Monkey Butt Powder (Yes it IS an actual product name.) I've had the same problem of armpits smelling like Death's ballsack on a hot day.

I live in Surrey and recently the weather has been stifling but we live in England so I'm sure that it will rain in a couple of days and you will smell great

Try using an antibacterial soap. Like Dial

It could be something within your body... when my hubby had too many energy drinks, his sweat smelled like vomit due to the crap inside the drinks. Eat or juice some radishes to detox your body

change your diet (no onions garlic processed food etc) and cut a lemon in four, put some salt on it and scrub everything. shave, rinse with water and it should go away.

Actually you should pour baking soda under your armpit for the smell for 15 minutes then wash. Eat correctly and drink much more water because if you stink that's not normal. Then I'd suggest you, not to buy spray deodorant but deodorant with a ball

You might want to check this out with a doctor if your smell is that bad and nothing helps.
