ACCORDING to reproductive specialists, women’s underwear has hidden dangers. Friction caused by thongs (G-strings), can transfer germs from the anus to the private parts and urethra to cause urinary tract infections.
Other infections are candidiasis, cystitis urethratis and vaginal infections. Knickers made of synthetic material can cause vaginal thrush and irritable, itchy skin diseases.
Tight knickers create excessive moisture around the covered skin. Lack of enough aeration affects the ecology of the woman’s private parts, making the woman more prone to infections. Bacteria thrive well in a warm, moist environment created by tight pants, especially made of nylon.
Crotchless knickers might be better than thongs and tight knickers. Underwear should not be worn at night and large pads should also be avoided. Recent studies show that the friction caused by the thong can damage the sensitive part of the vaginal and anal linings causing inflammations, pain when urinating and great discomfort. Reuters
