So firstly, I don’t sweat a lot to begin with. I’ll go for a run and I’ll be at a mile before I feel sweat beading up. I’ll get a little clammy throughout the day, but rarely have whole body sweats. As a result, I have very low body odor. If I don’t shower, it’ll take several days before my significant other will notice.

But I don’t wear deoderant or antiperspirant. If I do, then its like the rest of my body decides it needs to sweat. Anyone else out there with this experience?

    The both work by clogging the glands in your armpits. That does not mean the cooling function of your body is hindered, you simply sweat more everywhere else. For most people there is a noticeable increase of sweat on you back. Years of heavy use can shift sweating away from your armpits even if you are not using something currently.
