Uncomfortable bras

Blodwen regarding rash under boobs, I used Canestan cream to clear the rash. Then dusted the area twice daily using Lanacane medicated powder. It was wonderful and no rash since, that's about two years ago. Lanacane powder is now hard to find and I use any medicated powder.

Being a 38 GG bra size I go to Bravissimo for fitting. In the house sometimes wear an ahhh type bra, bought off Amazon to be able to get one that (nearly) fits. Definitely shapeless.

Coolgran65 I'm with you when it comes to using Canestan, my rash is fungal & very painful. Because of this I mostly go "bra-less" unless I'm going out. I'm 44C & find sourcing non-wired bras difficult

I buy bras from M and S that are for women after a mastectomy. They are soft and comfortable to wear. You do not pay VAT on these bras. I told the assistant I had not had a mastectomy and she said you still do not pay the VAT. They are pretty too.

Blodwen you might like to try ordinary cornflour under your boobs, it absorbs the moisture.

34GG here so can't find anything in chain stores that fit. M&S are hopeless for me. Bravissimo does it every time. Pity they seem to be mostly if not entirely in the south. Fortunately they have a shop in Solihull, which I believe may be as far 'north' as they go. That's not too far for me.

Blodwen, all of the recommendations given above will work but if I am in a very hot country and get a rash I use an anti-histamine, and talc.

Femfresh powder is made for 'intimate hyygiene', so can be found with the tampons in Boots or other pharmacists. It's made from cornflour rather than talc, and also contains benzyl benzoate which is effective with skin conditions. I find it works brilliantly for under-bra rashes. I use it every night after my bath, having dried the area carefully, and am now completely rash-free...
