    Was thinking the same thing, can't help but will be after advice too. I have started boxing once a week and I am conscious of how much worse it is afterwards.

    I don't mind if I am at the gym, but I am thinking patients might not be too happy when student nurse Trav gets close to them

    I use Mitchum scent-free (it's a dark green coloured roll-on bottle) & its the only one that doesn't leave me smelling a bit hinky at the end of the day. I also found switching brands every couple of months had some impact.

    good luck!

    Mitchum is not strong enough for me, I need something stronger

    Moo Goo deoderant is great!!! If your arm pits are a bit smelly it is not from the sweat but from a bacteria in the armpit area. You can cleanse that area with a mouth wash to tend to the bacteria for about a week. Then do not use any deoderants that stop you from sweating as it blocks the pores hence bacteria and then the smell and off you go again on the round a bout!!
    Good Luck

    Thanks for the advice, I really want a deoderant that stops sweating as I don't want to be dripping under my uniform. I might try the mouthwash tip though.
