Sweating

Feel stupidly embarrassed about this and like I’m the only woman experiencing it.

I’m 51 and probably over last six months I’ve been sweating more down below especially round crotch area. I’ve changed knickers to what I hoped was a more breathable fabric but within hours they are wet in crotch as are whatever I’m wearing in that area.

There is a sweaty smell even with using deodorant. I am overweight with a bit of a belly overhang which isn’t helping.

Pads on my knickers don’t stick and they irritate me and period knickers just feel wet.

Any ideas hugely appreciated as it’s getting me down. Please please be kind.
