Will my father's body odor be passed on to the next generation?

Body odor is hereditary. If the father has body odor, it is possible that it will be passed on to the children, but it is uncertain to which generation it will be passed on. The probability of inheritance is not high. If we want to prevent the occurrence of body odor, we should pay attention to the hygiene of the armpits and adjust our diet. Generally, if the father has body odor, the probability of passing it on to the daughter is relatively high, while the mother will pass it on to the son.

If the father has body odor but the mother does not, will it be passed on? If one of the parents has body odor, the child is more likely to have the disease, but it does not mean that it will definitely happen. On the one hand, inheritance is random, which means that it is not certain whether it will be inherited or not. It can be passed on to either boy or girl, and it is not certain which child it will be passed on to. On the other hand, if there happens to be an inducement, that is, a triggering factor, the occurrence of body odor is almost inevitable. Although we cannot predict the randomness of inheritance, we can eliminate the inducement and delay, reduce, and completely eliminate the occurrence of body odor through preventive treatment.

Body odor can be divided into two types: congenital and acquired. The inheritance of body odor is related to the parents' body odor and whether there is a family history of body odor. The inheritance of body odor is related to the chromosomes of the parents. If the mother has body odor, then there is a chance that the body odor will be passed on to both sons and daughters. But if the father has body odor, it will generally be passed on to the daughter.

Body odor is a dominant trait in autosomes. If one of the spouses suffers from body odor, the probability of passing on body odor to their next generation is more than 50%. However, if both spouses suffer from body odor, the inheritance rate of body odor will be as high as 80%. In addition, if body odor is not passed on to the next generation, the offspring born in the future will generally not be infected with body odor. However, for people with a family history of body odor, their probability of suffering from body odor is higher than those without a family history of body odor. So it is hereditary.
