NurseAnnie has the basic answer to this question... \n\nBut I have had this problem (hyperhydrosis) before, and I found an interresting cure! I had gone to the store to buy some antiperspirant (helps to reduce sweating, thereby reducing underarm smell), but grabbed the wrong stuff and ended up with just plain old deodorant (just a basic bacteria neutralizing agent to stop the smell). And guess what... I stopped sweating! Well, not stopped, but back to normal. I think I have a reaction to the aluminum or other compound in the antiperspirant.\n\nExperiment with different solutions. Salt crystals also offered good results. Look in the deodorant section of most pharmacies.

I know there is a shot that doc's can give for serious problems. I'd google some natural remedies in her diet. A girl shouldn't have that severe of a problem. \n\nThe ONLY antiperspirant that works for me is Almay Anti-Perspirant & Deodorant, Clear Gel, Fragrance Free - 2.25 oz - NOT the other Almay products. I get it at drugstore.com.\n\n\nDr. Andrew Weil's take on this situation is:\n\nBody odor\nMost body odor is the result of bacterial breakdown of sweat. Perspiration itself is normally odorless. An easy way to reduce the amount of bacteria under the arms is to splash on rubbing alcohol. Most commercial deodorant products contain irritating or harmful ingredients, including aluminum salts and dyes. Avoid the antiperspirant varieties. You can find better products in health-food stores, such as those containing extracts of green tea, which is antibacterial. Beware of "natural crystals," which contain aluminum even if they say they don't. Stimulant drugs, including coffee and tea, contribute to body odor by increasing the activity of apocrine sweat glands, special glands in hairy parts of the body that produce strong-smelling, musky secretions. Try eliminating caffeine if body odor continues to be a problem. \n\nAnother herbal remedy site suggested this:\n\nBeneficial Dietary Supplements\nChlorophyll is an effective deodorizer.\n\nVitamin B helps remove waste.\n\nZinc helps balance the body’s metabolism and reduces the cause of bad body odor.\n\nMagnesium enhances the effectiveness of vitamin B and zinc.\n\nThyme and Lavender Oils kill bacteria.\n\nSage, when taken in tea form, reduces sweat gland activity.

being small has nothing to do with it.. and you doctor is stupid bc breast cancer starts inside the milk thing i forgot what it is called and spreads to the outside by the time  it spreads to the outside to where you can feel it it has become stage 2,3,4,5 .. im small and i have stage 3,,so with a mamogram they catch it before it moves to where you can feel it...get a mamogram every year for age 40 and over or high risk...

Yes, all living creatures can get cancer. \n\nThe Breast Cancer Fund reported mostly on environmental toxins, but that does not mean that environmental toxins are the number one reason why women contract breast cancer. This cannot be concluded, mostly because many factors that cause breast cancer are yet unknown as the report itself states. \n\nThis does not mean that there is no evidence that some chemicals or radiation can cause breast cancer. Yes, when scientists study cells in a plate,  they often observe that adding a chemical to the plate will give some indications for cancer causation. That will also happen in experiments in animals. The truth is that in many of these experiments  very high doses of chemicals are given - and it is unlikely that a human will encounter these. So, a lot of the effects are yet unknown. \n\nThat's also why scientists are still focusing on breast cancer - a lot is known but a lot needs to be discovered. Although at present only 10 percent of the breast cancer seems to be caused by genes, it is well possible that many genes act together to cause breast cancer. So it could be that this is a much higher percentage. There is also evidence that overweight is related to breast cancer and the same is true for alcohol and a lot of hormonal factors. \n\nStudying self-medication by animals could perhaps be a way to get some more clues, but many animals are actually more likely to get cancer than humans.

My mum has been diagnosed with breast cancer earlier this year and had a mastectomy.  I needed to know a lot of information in order to be able to help her.  I found these websites very useful:\n\nwww.breastcancer.org\nwww.getbcfacts.com\n\nThese sites are very  informative and they will give you the information you need.\n\nThank God, now days treatment of BC has advanced beyond imagination.

I have had calcification at 29, Non invasive cancer at 46, calcifications at 47 and invasive br cancer at 47. now I have one breast removed.  you just have to be aware and keep up with check ups.  Calcifications can be caused by cafein and makes your breast very tender.\nEat lots (5 servings) of veg's a day or drink V8

It's a proven fact, the Univ. of North Carolina conducted a study and proved that women who ingested semen 2-3 times a week reduced their chances of having breast cancer than women who didn't ingest it.  So, if your girl wants to reduce her risk of breast cancer, you know what to tell her, "Get to swallowing!" : )

I have non small cell lung cancer - had surgery in Nov 05, just heard about cottage cheese and flaxseed oil and sent away for it.  As soon as it arrives I will be starting the regime.  I do not know anyone at this time with small cell lung cancer.

Yesterday I heard a story about this on NPR. It was on All Things Considered called "Study: Estrogen Protects Some From Breast Cancer." It sounds like it is individual for each woman depending on past family history and overall current health. Check out the link.

I have researched something called DMSO. My grandmother has cancer also, and she is not doing very well, but at this point she won't take DMSO, she is stubborn. Please research it and get her to try it. I really believe it will help!!
