Women’s fashioncan be weird.
What is that little pocket in the crotch of your panties for?
Surely it’s not meant to replace pockets on other layers of clothing, right?
So what’s the deal?
First off, the pocketisn’tmeant to be used for storage.
It’s not for decoration or extra protection in the event ofa wardrobe malfunction, either.
That pocket in the crotch of women’s underwear actually has a name:the gusset.
Gussets serve another function, too.
While that little patch covered by the gusset might help, overall breathabilityis still important.
Breathability is even more important if you’re active throughout the day.
If you think there’s any chance you’re going to be sweating, skip the synthetic materials.
This is especially true if you’re prone to bacterial problems down there.
Is your underwear (or lack thereof) actually safe?
Watch out for thongs, though.
That thong may be depositing colonic bacteria into your vagina or urethra."
Thongs can also irritate the sensitive skin in your nether regions and exacerbate hemorrhoids.
What about going commando?
Not wearing underwear is not onlytotally safebut may also be beneficial at least overnight.
It should also go without saying that you shouldchange your underwear every day.
