Before going to sleep, each person must have different habits in order to get quality sleep, such as washing your face, toothbrush, or change clothes with pajamas. But, do you have a habit of sleeping not wearing underwear?
For some people, sleeping not wearing underwear or even sleeping naked is still considered taboo. But it turns out there are many benefits of sleep not wearing underwear for health. Consider the following benefits
1. Make the vagina breathing
Dr. Alyssa Dweck, an obstetrician and gynecologist at Mount Kisxo, New York, said that in general the genital area should not always be closed while sleeping. However, there are still many people choose to sleep using underwear because they are reluctant to take risks.
The reason Dweck suggests to sleep is not wearing underwear at night because the bacteria and fungi love to breed in the dark, damp, and warm. Most of the day the genital area is covered with clothing and underwear - especially if the clothing worn does not absorb sweat. This allows vaginal irritation and makes the vagina moist.
Therefore, removing the underwear when sleeping can be one way of making the vagina breathing. In addition as well as an effort to maintain genital hygiene.
2. Maintain sperm quality
Likewise with women, some researchers say if using tight panties makes the testis not free to breathe, consequently can increase the temperature on the testes. Especially when you sleep with a pair of pants that cause inhibition of blood flow to the testes. In the end, this can decrease the amount of sperm produced. This indirectly leads to poor sperm quality.
3. Smooth blood circulation
When you decide to sleep without your underwear, you've reduced the risk of distress, rubbing, even the tights of a tight pants - especially in the crotch. This certainly affects the blood circulation, making the blood circulation becomes more smoothly.
4. Reduce the risk of infection
Maybe you think when deciding not to wear underwear while sleeping, will eventually create a perfect breeding ground for bacteria. But the idea has long been ignored.
Dr Gillian Dean, New York City's Planned Parenthood medical director, said there was no scientific research showing a direct link between nudity and contracting infections such as vaginosis or vaginal yeast infections. Sleeping not wearing pants will actually reduce the risk of infection in the genital area because the vagina or genitals are not moist.
Do not forget, you must ensure the cleanliness of the mattress and bed first before deciding not to wear underwear while sleeping.
5. Sleep more soundly
Sleeping not wearing panties or even naked can also be one therapy to cope with stress. The reason, with your naked sleep so much more freely in the move without having to feel hot, crowded because of clothes, or anything else. This is what makes sleep more relaxed and sound.
6. Make the relationship more harmonious
For you and a married couple, sleeping not wearing panties or naked even if it will make life more harmonious household. The reason, you and your partner will feel more intimate by making skin contact. This will also stimulate the production of hormones oxytocin in the body that affect the mood that makes you and your partner more relaxed in sexual intercourse.
