Inspired by the deodorant/antipersperant thread, I decided to ask if anyone ever experienced this as a significant or chronic problem.
I have occasionally had this happen in the last two years or so. I haven't isolated it to any particular product, and it's possible that it correlates with my one trial of laser hair removal there (one session -- maybe it was ipl).
Has anyone soled this for themselves? Or found a product that really helps and doesn't interfere too much with other things, like sweating, or wearing deodorant?
Thanks.
(Moderators, please move this thread if you feel another subforum is more appropriate for it. Thanks.) |

| I had bad underarm itching when I was trying a natural deodorant (no antiperspirant involved). It contained baking soda, and I think that was culprit for me. It was an excellent product and I was really disappointed that I had to quit using it so that the itching (and rash) would go away. |

That's interesting as I had exactly the same reaction when I tried a natural deodorant. I didn't think much of it, but just stopped using it. |

I have had chronic itching under my arms for years. I feel it was due to dry skin so when I moisturize my body after a shower, I put it under my arms, too (yes, even in my armpits). Then I use a deodorant/AP for sensitive skin (Dove) but just 2-3 swipes. I don't even use it in the winter time. I've had no problems w/ itchiness since doing this. HTH  |

| When I used the Linden Voss stuff, it was great at first. Then, after a while, my underarms started itching like crazy - not just when I applied it, but all day afterwards too. I used to look like a monkey, constantly scratching my armpits. |

| I have to use the kind with the lowest % of aluminum, but NOT all-natural to minimize itch. Sometimes I put lotion on my underarms before I put on antipersperant, which probably interferes with it but I'm not stinky, so... |
