As we age, our bodies change, and body odor is one thing that can catch people off guard. Among the rest, the skin becomes thinner, hormones change, and even the way we sweat isn’t what it used to be. That can allow bacteria to take hold more readily, particularly in places tend to overlook. At the same time, the skin’s process of shedding dead cells slows down, so accumulation occurs more rapidly than it did in the past.
None of that means you’re dirty or doing something wrong. Usually it’s just everyday habits that haven’t changed, even as your body has. With a few simple changes and a softer approach to daily care, most people can experience a sense of freshness and comfort without having to do much.
Below are 8 bathroom habits that can worsen odor without you even realizing it.
