excessive sweating from testicles/groin area - is that norma

I've started to notice that my balls are quite sweaty. It's maybe been for the last year or so but I can't seem to remember it being an issue before that. the first time I really noticed was when i was staying in hospital for about a month and I had a funny reaction to the starch in the sheets. One of the nurses checked me over and he said that he couldnt see any serious problem for me to worry about and gave me some cream for it because my groin area was quite itchy.

I just wanted to know if this is normal? I'm 21 and fairly open with friends about discussing some things but I didnt want to bring this up in case they all started laughing at me for it. I'm not really experiencing any discomfort or pain with it - it's more of an annoyance really because my underwear always ends up being damp. They arent soaked or anything like that - it's just a persistant dampness that doesnt go away. My testicles are fine and dry for about 15/20 minutes after i get out the shower but then they start to get warm and sweaty.

I've got problems with depression and I find it hard to phone my GP to make appointments and I tend to forget to ask him about it when I go to see him. I was just hoping somebody might be able to shed some light on this for me because it's something I would rather I didn't have to be stressing about.

Cheers
