Yeah, maybe I am just overreacting. He showers every other day because of exzema issues but we talk about him checking his odorous issue every day..

I'm looking for a deodorant that won't interfere with his hormones as a young boy. I started searching for deodorant with no aluminum just to find that they don't work so great. Does anyone have any good advice?

Tom's from Maine....all of their products are natural and can be found at your local store. I've seen it at Target and Trader Joe's, for sure.

Please Help Me Understand Why My Son Always Stinks!
A MyAutismTeam Member asked a question 💭

My son is now 21 and still at home. He bathes regularly, but man oh man does he smell bad! He swears he is using soap and shampoo and deoderant but it just seems really unlikely given the odor. At this age, how can I help? I thought about having him bathe in underwear and doing a re-training on how to best get clean. Why doesn't it bother him at all? Anyone else?

A MyAutismTeam Member

He probably can’t smell himself. Easier to notice when other people stink but hard to smell on yourself.
