Anti-perspirant- or regular deoderant while pregnant?

86>ive heard that d/o containing Anti-perspiant can cause breast cancer... does any one know the truth about this and is it better to use a d/o without antiperspirant during pregnancy?
Reply:if it was bad then it would be known, it's most likely a myth. i was preg and the only things i remember the dr told me of 1st off was taking meds of course, cats and fingernail polish/remover. so yeah not true. or we all would have Breast Cancer.
Reply:To tell you the truth, I think that's all a big myth. I wouldn't change my anti-perspirant if I were pregnant. If I switched to just deodorant, I would have big embarrassing sweat marks all the time. ewww....
Reply:i dont really think it is true. think of the MILLIONS of people, not just women that would have breast cancer. i used the same stuff all while i was preggo
Reply:Does not matter. I am pregnant and with summer coming up can't even believe that anyone would be afraid to use it. No medical studies have proved it - old wives tale. If you are super-concerned asked your ob, but I'm pretty positive you will be told that it i safe to use.
