The belief that deodorants or antiperspirants can cause cancer—particularly breast cancer—has circulated for years, but current scientific evidence does not support this claim.
If you are still uncomfortable , you can opt for paraben - free deodrants.

Yes , I feel since it has direct contact with the skin so it should not be used on regular basis .

Phthalates are used in deodorants. They are known endocrine -disrupters. FDA however says phthalates are in lower concentration. So, use deo at your risk! I would say use things in moderation.
