I have a shower chair and as disgusting as this sounds I only shower every 2-3 weeks. I really don’t smell (other people have said I don’t) but I’ll wipe myself down with shower wipes if I need to.

I have to limit showering as well! I use a spray alcohol based hand sanitizer on my armpits before putting on deodorant to kill bacteria, use a shower chair, and pound electrolytes before and after my showers. I’ve asked people and I don’t smell. If you change your clothes regularly you can be fine.

I don’t have a shower chair but I’ve been sitting on the shower floor and it’s still too much. I might have to give those wipes a try
