Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Does The Change In Body Odor Happen As You Age Or It Indicate Any Problem?
My body oder has changed over the last few years and is much less pleasant now. I get out of the shower and I already start to smell unpleasant. Could this be a sign of any particular problem? Or is it part of getting older (I am now 70)? My email address is: YYYY@YYYY
As per my surgical experience, change of body odor is not related to age criteria and the same must be evaluated for underlying metabolic disorder of some sort if any.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Bhagyesh V. Patel, General Surgeon
