Posted In: Antiperspirants Forum
I am suffering from excessive sweating on the underarms. I also have body odor oh it really sucks. But what I am concerned about right now is that I have read that deos and antiperspirant cause breast cancer. Is someone knew about this? I am afraid it was true
Antiperspirants and deodorants contain aluminum. And medical research on whether aluminum causes cancer isn't clear. Aluminum from antiperspirants may build up in breast tissue after years of use. Aluminum does have the ability to disrupt your endocrine system, but there's no scientific evidence to show that aluminum from antiperspirants causes breast cancer up to this day.
Because underarm antiperspirants or deodorants are applied near the breast and contain potentially harmful ingredients, several scientists and others have suggested a possible connection between their use and breast cancer. However, no scientific evidence links the use of these products to the development of breast cancer. If you are concerned about your breast cancer risk then go talk to your doctor.
