Default Excessive grooming possibly..

Hi. We are worried about our female Syrian hamster (about 6/7 months old - guess as adopted). About the last couple of weeks every time Tali wakes up with her fur looking wet all around her scent glands and on sides of body and some of her belly but isn't wet when we touch her fur. Tali hasn't got diarraheoa as her poos look normal in the cage. She is eating and drinking fine. We have done one complete clean out and its happened after this but this was weeks ago (this was after 3 months of being with us). We only spot clean the cage and haven't changed any bedding or substrate. Tali seems content and happy with bundles of energy. What is it? an allergic reaction to food maybe? Any thoughts / ideas would help as we think she might need to see a vet if doesn't go away. We also wondered if she is rolling around in her pee? Don't think its mites as not scratching.
