I have a rash on my armpits and under my breasts. It appears to be spreading just around those areas. Is this common in the menopause? I am 46 years old and I have been going through the menopause for about a year.

Itchy skin and skin rashes are very common in the menopause however, there may be other causes as well so it is best to get this checked out by your doctor.

In the meantime, you may find Neem Cream helpful and you may also find a cup or two of nettle tea daily reduces irritation.
