We've noticed that our 6 year old daughter sweats a great deal and especially when she is very anxious. She also gets odor under her arms. She's had a little odor under her arms in the summer for a few years and her pediatrician was not concerned. No other signs of early puberty. However, I'm starting to wonder if it's related to the anxiety and sensory in some way - since SPD kids do get very very anxious.
My son also sweats heavily when he sleeps and exercises and is a very heavy sound sleeper. In the morning, his sheets show a where a dried pool of sweat, drool and/or urine occurred (if his pullup leaks). He is going to be 6 this month but can't wake up to go pee and sometimes even is too engrossed in play to go when he is playing hard. He also gets a scale on his scalp (sebohrriac dermatitis) I feel due to the sweat. It would make sense that there is some connection. He has had an OT evaluation of sensory seeking and seems to have some auditory hyposensitivity.
