Yes, managing HS during winter can be challenging! Many myHSteam members have shared similar struggles with layering clothes. Instead of multiple layers, consider these alternatives:

• Loose-fitting clothing that doesn't restrict or rub against sensitive areas
• Soft, breathable fabrics
• Lightweight but warm materials For underarm comfort specifically:
• Try wearing sports bras or bralettes instead of traditional bras
• Look for natural, fragrance-free deodorants that won't clog pores
• Use loose-fitting tops that allow airflow
• Consider wearing a single warm but loose layer rather than multiple tight layers

Remember, while winter clothing choices may feel limited, focusing on comfort and breathability can help minimize flare-ups while staying warm.
