Snickering students

Hello. I am a female instructor at a small university. I have noticed that when I go up to board and turn to the side or turn around completely, once I turn back around students are exchanging glances and snickering. It has happened for several years now and is fairly consistent. It makes me uncomfortable and I think it may be them making fun of my body in some way, maybe my backside? Or a picture someone took in class when I turned around? I try to ignore it but it makes me so uncomfortable sometimes it hard to refocus and it’s disruptive for me. I can’t tell of I’m venting or want advice or support. Any of that would be helpful probably.
