According to Cancer Research UK, there is no solid evidence that using deodorants and anti-perspirants can cause breast cancer, or strong evidence to suggest that aluminium could increase the risk of cancer.

However, some cancer units advise women not to use deodorants containing aluminium salts before going for breast screening. This is not because aluminium salts are dangerous, but because they can obscure the results of screening tests. This can make breast cancers harder to detect.
