How does the armpit work?

The armpit function by secreting sweat, a natural human response to certain events, for example, an elevated temperature. The pubic hair which grows there helps to absorb this sweat, and by increasing surface area, assists in its evaporation. Many humans inhibit the ability of the armpit to sweat by applying an antiperspirant deoderant. This also helps to mitigate the awful smell which can originate from the armpit.


Why do armpits smell?

Most would say because of sweat...Actually, armpit sweat is odourless. The small amount of apocrine secretion in the sweat, however, causes the problem. Although fresh apocrine in sweat is also odourless, that characteristic smell develops when the sweat is broken down by the hair and skin cells in the armpit, and then eaten by bacteria. It's actually the bacteria that make the smell, releasing a chemical called 3-methyl-2-hexenoic acid.
