    Hi Chelsey! I have been on Tamoxifen since Dec. 2021. I found Lume deodorant. I buy it at Target, it's a bit pricy but it does the job for me. Wishing you the best.

    Have you tried Lume deoderant? It’s actually more like a lotion with Mandelic acid to kill the bacteria. The founder says, “ real culprit of most body odor is actually the bacteria on the skin digesting bodily fluids. “. I also use antibacterial soap in the shower only under my arms and privates for that reason and then just nicer body wash on the rest of the body. It might be worth a try for you! I think it’s only sold online 😊

    Best deodorant ive found is home made. Heaps of recipes out three i like some variation of bicarb and coconut oil+ or - some bees wax (depending on the climate) and essential oils.

    Try 10% Benzoyl Peroxide Cleanser Acne Face Wash, Apply 5 min before shower and in the shower wash it off. Heard from Dr Dray here on RUclips she's a dermatologist . Best of luck

    Hi, Chelsey...I use Henri Bernard crystal deodorant (there are other brands, too, I think). I bought mine years ago at a health food store, but it is available to purchase on Amazon. I have the solid rock and just run it under water and then rub underarms. I like it and feel it does a good job...maybe not as good as traditional deodorant but it's healthier and a decent trade-off, I feel. Unfortunately, it may not work as well for you with Tamoxifen causing your issue...but it might be worth a try.

      @@ChelseyTarnow, you are most welcome! I hope it works for you, too, if you decide to try it. I just had surgery for Stage 1/Grade 2 Invasive Mucinous Breast Cancer. Had a lumpectomy. Waiting to see an oncologist now to learn what treatment will be offered, although I'm certain it will be radiation and hormone therapy. Not sure I can or will do the latter after hearing of the struggles so many women have with it. Thanks for sharing your experience. All the best to you!

      @@ChelseyTarnow, I hope the deodorant works for you...remember to give it time, as your body will need to adjust to it. I'm not finding the waiting challenging, but I am surely finding the prospect of having to make a decision very challenging! Thankyou for the well wishes! All the best in return! ♥

      Hi, thank you for sharing your natural deodorant! It sounds easy to make which I like! I'm sorry you are experiencing other random side effects. I personally haven't had those, but if you are I can only imagine others are too... I hope you can find some relief to the pain🙏🙏

      @@lauracanada3116 Yes! I definitely feel more tired with less enthusiasm, less motivation, less drive... and I would also describe the feeling of seeing the world as more grey. I do think it's because of the Tamoxifen in my case. I'm recommend to be on it for 5-10 years.
