I am having a risk-reducing double mastectomy and implant reconstruction next week. I have seen online that you cannot wear any deodorant after surgery but I am not sure if that is specific to ladies who have cancer and therefore lymph node removal as well or if it is for us too because of the drain locations. I don't mind using roll on if needed just would rather not skip it all together as I will stink!

  • Hi, I haven’t used deodorant for months now since my op. I’ve had mastectomy. 
    They advise not too. Not sure why. Think it’s to do with the scars and they take a while to heal xx
