Hi My 8, just turned 9, year old daughter has very odorous armpits. She doesn t appear to have any other signs of early onset of puberty. It has been an issue since about March. She does have a sweet tooth, and I am wondering if that may be the culprit. She is a grazer too. Thank you, Peggy
Hi, Yes it is an early sign of Puberty. But there is nothing to worry. I have a home remedy for this. After her bath just sprinkle a little bit of baking soda(sodium bicarbonate) in her armpits. This white fine powder is generally available in our kitchen or you could get it at any Indian grocery store n get away with the odour. Trust me it works!
