To sleep with or without underwear? That is the question. Various studies claim that it is much better to sleep without underwear, as this promotes skin perspiration and prevents fungus and infections. Even so, many people cannot sleep well without
underwear. Are you one of them? If so, it's important to choose wisely, as uncomfortable underwear can cause problems with proper rest. How do you do it?
This is what sleeping underwear should be like
Professionals who
recommend sleeping without underwear do so to avoid the risk of infections and the proliferation of bacteria. However, all of these problems can be avoided by choosing the right sleep underwear. Also, keep in mind that there are some
consequences to not wearing underwear .
Avoid tight underwear
The problem with wearing underwear to sleep isn't just the lack of breathability, but also the discomfort that underpants that are too small can cause. They can
hinder proper blood circulation, cause chafing, cuts, and even skin wounds .
This happens especially around
the waist , as many underwear have very tight elastic bands, causing discomfort in that area of the body. With
Abanderado's Extra Soft Waistband, you won't have this problem, as it offers maximum support, yet with the utmost comfort, without chafing or pinching. It has an anatomical waistband that adapts perfectly to the shape of your body.
Choose soft and fine fabrics
The fabric of the sleep underwear we wear is one of the most important factors to consider. It
should be like a second skin to avoid discomfort that won't let us rest peacefully.
We shouldn't choose thermal fabrics, because even in cold areas, they may not be breathable enough, and we could experience skin problems or some type of infection. The best choice is garments like those from
Abanderado's Suavidad Real line , which are very soft to the touch and cling to the skin like another layer.
Avoid synthetic materials
If you've heard the saying "cheap is expensive," we assure you it's a very true saying. There are many very affordable underwear products, but they're made with synthetic fabrics that cause allergies, itching, and completely prevent perspiration. Therefore, it's best to choose cotton and
organic cotton garments. Why?
Cotton underwear
maintains a good body temperature and promotes perspiration , preventing the growth of fungi and bacteria, which can lead to infections. Furthermore, cotton doesn't cause itching or allergies and offers excellent comfort due to its good fit.
These are more advantages of choosing cotton underwear. Thanks to all these benefits, you won't even notice you're wearing underwear, and your sleep will be long and restful.
- Protects the skin from moisture.
- They are garments that last longer if they are properly cared for.
- They do not have chemicals that can affect the skin.
- They regulate the pH of the intimate area.
Use them only for sleeping
Just as we have pajamas for sleeping, we should also have underwear for sleeping. This way
, they won't get deformed by other movements we make during our daily life , nor will the fabric wear out. This way, they'll always be intact, promoting rest. Have more than one for this purpose in your drawer, and remember to keep them in mind when thinking about
updating your underwear drawer.
Take care of them in the wash
The last tip is related to the care of your sleepwear. It's about pampering them and treating them with the utmost care. Keep in mind that
clothes wear out during washing for many reasons : the detergents used, the water temperature, the spin setting, and the number of washes.
For these reasons, it's recommended
to wash underwear by hand , or on a delicate cycle, using a mild soap, preferably without added chemicals. This way, we'll maintain the fabric's original structure.
So, remember that if you're one of those who can't say no to sleepwear, you should keep all these tips in mind. This way, you'll always have perfect sleepwear and sleep like a baby.
