What Causes Bad Body Odor?
I have a body odor, but I can t smell it myself. I ve been told for about 4 years about how bad it is. It started after the birth of my son 4 years ago, I believe it s because of a high level of antibiotics (Penicillin) given to me during his birth. All of my test always come back normal, and no doctor takes me seriously, they just give me ideas about different soaps to use. Any idea of what this could be, or who I should see to get real help?

I really appreciate your concern, bad body odor is not due to any ill condition but it could be physiological some time could be due to hormone changes or diet like avoid onion garlic spicy food, drink more water, have bath twice or thrice in day, use nice quality deodorant and stop worrying hope this information helps.
