Are Thongs Healthy For You?
Thongs have been fashion fierce for quite some time but are they really that healthy for you? As sexy as they are they can cause certain health dilemma. It is because the thong has one strip of fabric that is very thin that rides up inside the female anatomy. This strip of fabric can collect bacteria and cause infections.
One of the major problems would be a bladder infection. This is caused by stool getting on the strip of fabric and rubbing into the crotch. Human stool usually contains e coli bacteria.
The worst type of underwear is nylon or polyester. The best type is cotton because cotton underwear is more breathable. Whether you are wearing thong underewear or other types you can decrease your likelihood of getting a bladder infection or yeast infection.
Another thing to realize is that thongs can come in a big variety of sizes. Some of the fabric strips on thongs have thinner, thicker or looser strap. If the thong strap is too tight it can cause irritation of female genitals and it can even cause conditions like haemorrhoids.
Yet another type of infection that can occur is called contact dermatitis. This is caused by the straps of the thong rubbing too tightly against the genitals. This is also just simply a broad term to describe many different types of rashes. It is especially recommended that you not wear thong on a really hot day as that creates ideal conditions for creating a rash or infection.
Most doctors say that thongs should not be worn for every day wear but rather only special occasions. The main purpose of a thong was to get rid of the line that regular panties can produce beneath filmier and lighter fabrics. They were not really meant for every day wear because they are basically not that hygienic because of their design yet that is exactly what some people do.
If you must wear a thong then practicing impeccable female hygiene is an absolute necessity. This means that women must wipe themselves from front to back after going to the bathroom. This prevents the wearing of the thong from pushing bacteria from the anus forward back and into the vagina.
Still there is no doubt that thongs are a very pretty female lingerie item. They especially look good with very skimpy bras. Of course there are a few situations where it is not appropriate to wear a thong. You would not want to wear one under a very see through chiffon dress for instance as that would simply reveal too much.
Although thongs are considered to be a health risk by many there are several styles that have been popular for winter. Thicker thongs made out of cotton are recommended but the hottest styles feature red thongs made out of thicker swatches of velour or velvet.
