Body odor are common when we exercise or we are too warm. They are also common when we are feeling nervous, anxious or stressed.
Unusual changes in sweating — either excessive perspiration (hyperhidrosis) or little or no perspiration (anhidrosis) — can be cause for concern. Changes in body odor also may signal a health problem.
Otherwise, lifestyle and home treatments can usually help with normal sweating and body odor.
Some people naturally sweat more or less than other people. Body odor also can vary from person to person. See a doctor if:
Sweating and body odor are caused by sweat glands of our body. The two main types of sweat glands are eccrine glands and apocrine glands. Eccrine glands occur over most of our body and open directly onto the surface of the skin. When our body temperature rises, these glands release fluids that cool our body as they evaporate.
Apocrine glands are found in areas where we have hair, such as our armpits and groin. These glands release a milky fluid when we are stressed. This fluid is odorless until it combines with bacteria on our skin.
