Some antiperspirants have aluminum in them.... and aluminum has been linked to causing cancer.
Deodorants are different... they are only for the odor, not for the wetness, and they don't contain aluminum.
If breast cancer is something that runs in your family, you might consider asking your doctor if he feels you should avoid the aluminum in antiperspriants... otherwise, it's probably fine.
it has been said that deodorant causes cancer but seriously they say everything causes cancer so you can never be sure. i heard you shouldn't shave ya under arms cause that causes it even more

No deodorant doesn't cause Cancer.
Yes they say it can cause cancer it is the alumium in it! But it is a really low chance of getting cancer from it though!

Yes I believe it does. Use anti-perspirant instead.
