Smell since natural deodorant switch

Q&ASmell since natural deodorant switch
Samantha asked 4 years ago

Hello,
I decided to switch to natural deodorant (no aluminium) in early August 2020. Since late August my armpits stink, even after I shower! Everyone talks about a detox period lasting a few weeks when you switch to natural deodorant, but its been 5-6 months now...
Have I permanently messed up my underarm microbiome?
Is there anything I can do to stop the pungent \\\\\\\'musty\\\\\\\' smell that I did not have before? (Will going back to aluminum deodorant fix things?)
Ive been doing research but feel totally embarassed and feel like there is nothing to do.
Thank you for your research. I would love to hear from you about my concern and on the progress of your research.
