Hello,
I have a few suggestions for you, that worked really well for me.
I have been having the same problem for the past 5 years and I know how hard and depressing bromhidrosis feels. I have also really tried everything for the past 5 years in order to get rid of the never-ending bad smell and sweating, but nothing would work. Still, I may have good news for you (I hope it will work for you as well as it did for me). Let me explain to you below:
I ended up taking medicines that would help really well, prescribed by my doctor (Oxybutinine, 3x 2,5mg a day). It is actually medication against incontinence, but it is known to work as well against bromhidrosis. Indeed, after three days of taking the medication, my symptoms completely disappeared. I was happy about it because I was able to live normally again. However, the problem wasn't fixed! As soon as I stopped taking the medicine, the sweating and smell would come back. Moreover, I couldn't imagine being stuck with 3 pills a day for the rest of my life, that in turn would also probably impact my urinary system.
So I decided to go and see another doctor, more kinda alternative medicine. He actually tested my blood (a tiny drop from my finger) and put it under the microscope. He showed me what he saw and explained that my blood cells were showing a "rouleau effect". I will spare you all the technical details but basically this meant that my blood was too sour. Hence, I needed to "un-sour" my body. He advised me to bathe in Epsom Salt (1 or 2 times a week, starting with 250mg and then increasing dosis gradually - google it before you try though and respect the gradual as well as the max. dosis, and I don't know if you can take those baths infinitely. I took 5 baths and the symptoms already decreased drastically) and drink two cups of Koemis Koetjing tea a day, during three weeks. I have done so and I can't believe it but for the first time in 5 years, I no longer sweat and the odor I suffered is completely gone!! COMPLETELY!!! My sweat would always smell extremely sour and ammonia/chemical-ish. So trust me I didn't have a mild version of bromhidrosis... and I know how immense its impact affects our daily life and psychological well-being. As a female, it has been really, really difficult for me too. I sometimes also didn't feel like going on with living, as I couldn't imagine a future living this way...
I felt like sharing my experience and so far-succes story, as I truly hope it will help you and more people!!! It's worrying that to see that, clearly, the medicine is not on point to assist us on this health problem.. My doctor would never have come up with the Epsom Salt and tea etc. It's a blessing I ended up seeing the homeopath guy, who performed such an easy and quick blood test and could immediately see a deviant pattern in my blood cells.. So please, try to keep hope and never quit seeking for solutions as I did. I am happy to be able to conclude now that my problem was persistent only because it was misdiagnosed, as in not recognized as a consequence of over-soured blood.
All the best to you and all of you!
