Suggest An Effective Deodorant For Sensitive Skin
I have sensitive skin to deordorants. I have tried some for sensitive skin and I become itchy on my underarms. The last product I tried is Dove Advanced Care and my underarm became itchy after using it. I had to use Desitin to calm the itching. Please recommend a deordorant product for me. Thank you

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Almost all deodorant contains chemicals which might trigger irritation in sensitive persons. So my opinion is to avoid the use of deodorant. I would suggest you to take bath in Dettol liquid mixed with water,which causes reduction in bacterial flora. This ultimately lead to better feeling. And there may be no need to apply deodorant.
Hope this helps you.
