A nurse practitioner has shed light on the advantages of women sleeping without underwear. According to health experts, going commando at night can promote better vaginal health. By allowing the genital area to breathe, women may reduce the risk of yeast infections and other moisture-related issues that can arise from wearing tight-fitting underwear.
Additionally, sleeping without underwear can enhance comfort and promote a more restful night's sleep. The absence of restrictive garments allows for greater freedom of movement, which can be particularly beneficial for those who tend to feel constricted or overheated during the night.
Moreover, this practice can contribute to improved skin health in the intimate area. The lack of friction from underwear may help prevent irritation and chafing, allowing the skin to remain healthy and comfortable. While some may prefer to wear underwear for various reasons, considering the potential benefits of going commando at night could lead to a healthier choice for many women.
