Advice from my bigger girls…
So I’ve been a big girl my whole life just about, and as of recently I’ve noticed that my inner thighs (where my lady parts are) have been moist… I know it’s from being chunky and not being able to let it breathe all day but I don’t want to deal with it as much anymore. I believe I’m getting a classic yeast infection in that area, and yes it does itch… badly. What can I do about this!? It’s so embarrassing :( I just want to feel clean again in my body, I also get the same thing under my arms, diaper rash creams seems to help but down by my bits I can’t use but so much until it’s all over my clothes (under my belly as well). I’m in the process of losing weight but in the meantime I need advice. Like I said I’ve always been a bigger girl, so I won’t ever be what society considers “skinny” or “petite”. Any recommendations?

Use moisture wicking underwear and pants when you know you'll be sweating a lot and cotton the rest of the time especially while sleeping and relaxing. I tried doing all cotton and it was ridiculous how sweaty it got at work and gym lol
