I have looked into hyperhidrosis, but I don’t sweat that much. As far as bromidrosis it has some similarities as the smell does (mainly) come from my armpit area, but I have it even after just getting out of the shower before I have a chance to sweat. Even though sweating does not seem to actually increase the power of the odor it increases the range.

I used to go to the gym everyday for 2-4 hours, but I heard lots of complaints around me about a mysterious terrible odor. I knew it was me. I have since canceled my gym membership and I spend my time at home on the computer.
I can smell myself when I sweat and it is really really REALLY bad, (It makes me sick) I can’t think about how much worse it is for everyone around me. I am happy just after showering and I even ask my family how I smell and they like it! However if I sweat even a little bit and I sweat a lot in the gym it is just as if I have not bathed in weeks.
So working out did not help my condition, however I have learned that eating garlic does not seem to make it any worse! And I can blame my smell on the garlic I always eat. (My favorite food now and I let everybody know it)
