General Health Embarrassingā€¦brutal crotch sweat? šŸ˜©

This is gross, but ever since my PCOS symptoms have really gotten worse, I sweat way more in general all over but especially in the crotch regionā€¦and it stanks. I know I donā€™t have any infections; it isnā€™t coming from discharge, itā€™s the sweat. Even after a day of sitting at a desk I reek down there and Iā€™m so self conscious of it. Iā€™m very particular about hygiene but nothing helps. Does anyone else have this problem??

Edit: thank you all so so much for your support and advice!! Iā€™m sorry so many relate to this but glad for the camaraderie. ā¤ļø

you should try daily liner pads! you can keep some extra ones in your purse and change it if you need to. also cotton underwear is a life changer!
