Deoderant??

This is probably going to sound funny, but has anyone had any issue with deoderants?? I've noticed that in the past week I've had a lot of irritation in my underarms. My aunt suggested switching to a clinical formula either by Dove or Secret. So, I bought some today and I'm going to give it a try.

Also, in the bend of my elbow over the past month I have noticed a small rash that starts out looking like bug bites and then they look like little white heads. It becomes itchy, scabs over and dissapears only to resurface again in a few days. It's only in the one spot and it's rather irritating. Any ideas??

Well, I go to the OB on Wednesday for my first appointment...got my preggo confirmation from the Dept of Health this past Wednesday and have my first Wic appointment Wednesday also! I'm still trying to believe it's true LOL!!

Thanks for any and all advice!

One other thing....today is day 3 of no smoking!!! I'm full of nerves and had an emotional breakdown today over the stupidest thing, but I'm still going strong!!! :)

I was a diehard Suave user for years and then it just flat out stopped working for me all of the sudden a few years ago. I switched to Dove (just the regular, not the clinical strength formula) and it was an AMAZING transformation. I've been a convert ever since. AND my armpits are SO smooth all the time.

As for the rash....I'm at a loss. Sorry!

 Congrats on your pregnancy!! I Understand what you mean cause I am 9 weeks and still having a hard time believing I am pregnant...except I have sickness so bad that makes me know that Wow I am pregnant because I was not ever sick every day before. I have not ever had an irritation from a deoderant..however I cannot stand the smell of my husband now while being pregnant LOL..Poor guy Im always yelling at him to stay away from me. As far as your rash on your elbow..I am not a doctor and have no idea what that is...but to me it sounds like psorasis or a heat rash maybe. Just try some Cortaid if the rash comes back cause that should help relieve the itch and cool down the rash. I get heat rash sometimes and its huge big red what I call pimples but they look as big as bites..except I do not get the white spots...the white spots to me would mean that the rash is just getting worse and needs attention. I have read on rashes before and also says you can put some ice pack on it to cool it down and the bumps will get smaller but also use some cream. If it comes back try that.
