Hormonal problems

“Hormonal fluctuations may play a role in body odor.” This is something that can also happen during menopause. “Testosterone levels predominate, attracting more bacteria to sweat and making it smell more intense.”

Do you have any illness

“It could be a side effect of other conditions, such as diabetes, hyperthyroidism or liver problems.”

Bad eating habits

“Diets high in spices or ingredients like garlic and onions can change and affect body odor.”

It’s getting older

“Body odor can change as we age.”
