Scented soap , Bubble baths , scented detergent, or tight clothing and tight underwear can cause it.

Go with unscented everything. My daughter is 4 and I still use unscented everything. I also don’t have her sleep with underwear on so that she could sort of air out while she’s sleeping. I put her in loose fitted pajamas with no underwear. Here are things we use at home for her.

Also make sure her underwear are always 100 percent cotton.
