3 weeks post-op: Body odor post hysterectomy

Surgery was on 7/18, I'm showering daily. I'm not doing anything strenuous. Mid day- I begin to stink. I'm sitting in an ice cold room, so cold my hands and feet are cold. I have pillows and a lightweight blanket on- it's the perfect nest. By back gets sweaty and I have sweat dripping in my cleavage.

I was never a sweaty person before, and really never a stinky sweater. But I can absolutely smell myself.

Someone, anyone... please tell me you have this too... normal right?

You are not alone, this does happen with some women. Since there may be different causes of increased body odor, this is something that you should discuss with your doctor. Please keep us updated!
