Hey Betsy (Hair & Scalp Odor Problem)
» Yes, back to this thyroid theory. I just realized in thinking about it
» that when my whole problem started, I had just started a higher dose of
» the thyroid med and the odor problem started. Although my levels were
» checking out just fine I am thinking there could have been something about
» the level I was on that was stimulating over production of oil in my scalp.
» The Jason Dandruff shampoo seems to have gotten things back on the normal
» path but this lowering of the thyroid dose seems to have taken me to a
» different level of control. We shall see...but I do see a connection of
» the dose and oil production. I can identify with the Jason Dandruff
» shampoo being a starting point of giving you control over the odor as I
» believe it brings the yeast and bacteria under control with it's
» ingredients. And you are right, this is not a sales pitch but merely a
» testimonial on what worked for me.
»
» I do remember you had some thyroid issues in your family also. Yes, I am
» inclined to believe there is an endocrine issue involved in this.

» This is an interesting line of discussion.
I have noticed that my smell gets better or worse depending on where I am in my menstrual cycle. It is definitely coming from my sweat, which suggests metabolism. I had a cold recently, and I tried taking those trendy zinc tablets, which made me smell worse! I wonder if I don't respond to metals well. Very weird. I had been using Tom's of Maine natural unscented deodorant, but I tried a regular deodorant like Dove. I smelled metallic. Very weird.
