1. Wearing Synthetic Fabrics Too Often
Many modern garments are made from polyester or blended fabrics designed to resist wrinkles and last longer. However, these materials tend to trap heat and moisture, creating the perfect conditions for odor-causing bacteria—particularly as sweat changes with age.
Why it matters:
As estrogen levels decline, sweat can become more concentrated and stronger-smelling, making breathable fabrics increasingly important.

What helps:
Opt for natural fibers such as cotton, linen, bamboo or modal, especially for underwear, bras and tops worn close to the skin.
