It’s natural to sweat when you’re hot. It doesn’t matter if you’re working out, sitting in a hot car, or just wearing too many layers. Certain areas of your body, such as your armpits, are more prone to sweating than others. This is usually due to a high concentration of sweat glands and hair follicles in one place. The groin is an area of the body that behaves much like the armpits: It’s hairy, warm, and full of sweat glands and bacteria. It’s true that some people sweat more than others. But having sweat and moisture around your vagina throughout the day or night can lead to discomfort and potentially contribute to yeast infections. Here are a few tips for keeping your vaginal area cool and dry. Try sweat-wicking underwear Moisture-wicking technology, which has been a staple of athletic wear for years, is available in the place you may need it most: your underwear. This fabric pulls moisture away from the skin and out to the exterior of the fabric. This helps keep the underwear dry on the inside. Some sweat-wicking underwear contains odor-absorbing molecules that can help keep you feeling fresh all day. Say ‘yes!’ to cotton Synthetic materials, like polyester, don’t breathe as well as natural fabrics. Instead of allowing sweat to evaporate out, the material holds the sweat in and can trap it against your skin. Natural fabrics, like cotton and linen, allow sweat to evaporate like it’s supposed to. They’re basically organic sweat-wickers. The downside? Cotton retains moisture longer than synthetic sweat-wicking fabrics. This means you’ll deal with a little bit of wetness before things dry out. Opt for loose, flowing fabrics Skinny jeans or anything tight in the crotch area can raise the temperature down there. When your skin rubs up against the fabric, it causes friction, and friction builds heat. When that heat gets trapped under tight clothes, you’re going to get sweaty. Loose, flowing pants will prevent friction and allow air to flow through. Consider wearing loose joggers or wide-leg palazzo pants. Change your clothes after every sweat sesh Yeast is a type of fungus that thrives in warm, moist environments. Spending the day in wet underwear gives yeast the opportunity to grow out of control, leading to: vaginal itching

Antiperspirants and deodorants may work for your pits, but they can do more than a little damage below the belt. Instead of reaching for your usual stick or spray, try something made specifically for this area. You may want to look for a talc-free option. The American Cancer Society reports a slightly elevated risk of ovarian cancer if the powder particles were to travel through the vagina and reach the ovary. For most people, bathing one or two times per day with soap and water is enough to wash away the sweat and oils that cause odor. Just be sure to use a gentle, moisturizing body wash. Skip the panty liner unless you’re spotting If you have nothing to change into, panty liners and pads can provide a quick fix for wet underwear. But they can also make you sweat more. Most panty liners aren’t breathable and trap heat in your crotch area. Opt for 100 percent cotton panty liners to help you take advantage of cotton’s moisture-wicking properties. Clean up with a feminine hygiene wipe Moist toilet paper wipes are a convenient way to clean off sweat in the middle of the day. Just be sure to avoid antibacterial wipes, which can harm your good vaginal bacteria. The Office on Women’s Health recommends that you do not douche, as it can lead to other vaginal problems, such as infections.
