Choosing the best deodorant for hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) can be challenging. Here are some recommendations based on the knowledge base:

- Natural, Aluminum-Free Options: Products like Native Deodorant, Kiss My Face, and Pretty Frank are recommended. They are more expensive but gentler on HS skin.
- Solid Sticks: Some members prefer solid sticks like Dove solid stick, as gels can irritate the skin.
- Antibacterial Properties: Deodorants with antibacterial properties, such as Antibiotic Mitchum, can help reduce irritation.
- Fragrance-Free: Fragrance-free or unscented deodorants can help prevent flare-ups and irritation.

Additionally, some members opt to skip deodorant entirely and use alternative methods like flushable wipes to manage sweating and odor.
