Sleeping with tight underwear can be harmful to health, both for men and women, expert doctors suggest.Specifically, it could cause severe abrasion in women's skin and infertility problems in men.In that sense, American gynecologist Alyssa Dweck recommends her patients to sleep without underwear and loose pants."If we constantly cover that area, and with a fabric that is wet or not very absorbent, we are creating the perfect breeding ground for bacteria or yeasts," he explains to Huffington Post.Dweck adds that sleeping with tight underwear not only returns to women more susceptible to candidiasis, but could also exacerbate the infections that are produced by embodied hairs, and even make the hairs grow incarnate in themselves.
In the case of men, the consequences can still be worse, says Dr. Brian Steixner, director of the Male Institute of Jersey Urology Group (United States).And is that sleeping with tight underwear, in addition to rubbing and humidity, represents another more serious danger: infertility.“The lower area must always be at an adequate temperature, in order to optimize sperm production.That is why sometimes underwear can be a problem, ”explains the doctor.Finally, both Dweck and Steixner agree that the more humid and warm the genital area, the greater the risk regarding the proliferation of bacteria, which makes any irritated skin more probalities to infect itself.
