The research, which is also reviewed in an editorial published in the Journal of Applied Toxicology, looked at where breast tumors were appearing, and determined that higher concentrations of parabens were found in the upper quadrants of the breast and axillary area, where antiperspirants are usually appliedii. Parabens are chemicals that serve as preservatives in antiperspirants and many cosmetics, as well as sun lotions.

I stopped using antiperspirants immediately. It's not easy but you can find "deodorant" that is not billed as antiperspirant and does not contain aluminum. Then, after going through menopause I found I don't have stinky armpits any more! Woot! Menopause is the best thing ever. No stinky armpits, no stupid fucking blood oozing out of my body. The only slight down side is little/no sex drive. But since my husband is completely uninterested as well, it causes no stress and probably is a good thing. It's like being a kid again! Life is simple, and I'm full of energy. [/quote]
