Do you wear pants to bed? Many women would likely answer in the affirmative. However, experts say when a woman does so on a daily basis when it’s not necessarily because she is having her period, there may be side effects to it!
Physicians say that the female genital needs to breathe in order to maintain its PH levels and prevent fungi and odour. And that’s why doctors advise going bare below when it’s bed time at the close of day.
Part of the problem, says Family Physician, Dr. Grace Obong, is that during the day,women wear a variety of panties and tight outfits that hardly allow their privates to breathe. She says though it’s advisable and absolutely preferable to wear cotton panties, many women still opt for polyester panties, with the attendant heating up of the genital area while the day lasts.
And as for those who may not like to go to sleep without having pants on, Obong recommends wearing of boxers or pyjamas.
Bacterial vaginosis
Talking about the need to maintain the PH levels of the honeypot, experts at womenshealth.gov say the honeypot normally has a balance of mostly “good” bacteria and fewer “harmful” bacteria. However, a condition, called bacterial vaginosis, develops when the balance changes.
“With BV, there is an increase in harmful bacteria and a decrease in good bacteria. BV is the most common honeypotl infection in women of child-bearing age,” the portal enthuses.
Obong says women with BV may have an abnormal honeypotl discharge with an unpleasant odour, while some women may complain of a strong fish-like odour, especially after sex.
“The discharge can be white (milky) or gray. It may also be foamy or watery. Other symptoms may include burning when urinating, itching around the outside of the honeypot, and irritation; while some women with BV have no symptoms at all.
Yeast infection
To further underscore the negative effects of wearing panties to bed, online portal, Medline Plus, also notes that too much moist in the female genital area can lead to honeypotl yeast infection, most commonly due to the fungus Candida albicans.
“Wearing tight underwear or a pair made from polyester or some other material that doesn’t breathe can lock in moisture and lead to yeast infections,” the warning goes.
Again, Certified Sexuality Counselor, Evelyn Resh, says, “I do not recommend that women wear underwear to bed. Taking a break from underwear for the eight or so hours that you’re asleep gives you an opportunity to ‘air-out’ down there! Best to have an underwear-free zone while sleeping.”
And while yeast infection is not a sexually transmitted illness, physicians say some men will develop symptoms such as itching and a rash on the joystick after having sexual contact with an infected partner.
The symptoms of yeast infection are as obnoxious as they are embarrassing, and they include abnormal honeypotl discharge, which ranges from a slightly watery, white discharge to a thick, white, chunky discharge; painful intercourse, painful urination, redness and swelling of the vulva; and itching in the honeypot and the labia. You may also feel burning sensation when you have yeast infection.
Go natural
The online physician, Dr. Mehmet Oz, counsels, “It’s time to go au naturel. You don’t want it to be so moist down there. Let it dry out a little bit.” The reason for this timely advice, Oz says, is because the underpants can abrade on your skin a little bit, and can cause pimples. And you don’t want that .....culled

ReplyDeleteSame here..panties nd bra na wahala for me.
DeleteSame here, infact if I didn't go to bed naked, I'd remove the PJ/nightie in the middle of 9t. So inconveniencing...

ReplyDeleteDoctors in de house pls tell us how it can be treated.thanks
ReplyDeleteU get dey diseases? Pls doctors u got a patient here o make una hurry ansa her.
DeleteHow what can be treated?u don go drink ogogoro again abi?
DeleteIs like they don't they baff go bed they wear one pant and sleep on it,very dirty girls do that,frm cindy baby
DeleteThe thing they smell? Go buy Flagll and take for 5days. If you get money, join Difflucan and take the three at once. Repeat after 3days. Thank me by praying for me*wink*
DeleteGo better pharmacy o
D diflucan I got is only 1 tablet oo! Pls help oo! Got it here in SA! Shey e dey diff?
DeleteMetronidazole also known as 'flagyll' should be used for 5days... STOP washing ur 'kini' with soap or femfresh... Just use water! U do more harm than good when u scrub ur area.. Ok bye
Delete@anon 4:58pm, yes Difflucan does come in a single dose. So you are fine. It's the same strength as the 3tabs. But repeat the dose again after 3 days. Also allow air to always enter your veejay. And always use non bio soap to wash your panties. Once you have treated your infection, please buy new sets of panties or soak your old ones in dettol and hot water.You can also get Trosyd ovule, to kill the infection. But use at night. Could be messy!!!!
DeleteAunty stella....you don spoil no be today ..kai nobody raw pass you...you no send person ,you just download am like boko bomb .You are the best ever.

ReplyDeleteBEAUTIFUL TALK. That is for quick service. My hussy likes to have a feel around 5 am , when i want to go and prepare the children for school. Anyway i have to open sharp sharp due to no pants. Stella is a very good GOSSIPIST. Love this post so much doing things in my system.
DeleteOga will say I tempt him every night when I don't have my panties on so I had to start wearing them to bed at least to reduce the frequency of the you know what *wink*
ReplyDeleteDry girl. Don't give him you hear. If he gets it outside don't complain
DeleteI wear my short night gown dats all. Except when have got visitors then I use pyjamas. Sometimes sleeping naked is the best.
ReplyDeleteSometimes??? Every time ooooo! Staying Naked is bliss.
DeleteI swear, no matter what even I winter I sleep naked. Mrs O
DeleteWear pant to bed ke? Nope, i sleep naked.
ReplyDeleteJust like the body needs less clothing at night, so also the punani needs to be free.

DeleteYES OH! @ ANONYMOUS 12:47PM STEP UP YOU SENSE OF HUMOUR.......
DeleteI don't wear pants on a daily basis*call it whatever*, I slide into my trousers and skirt and off I go. I feel so uncomfortable wearing pants on a good day let alone at night. My husband is constantly on my case on my attitude of not wearing it, he sneaks behind and pull my trouser down to ensure I have a pant on and in order to satisfy him, I wear it for him to see and takes it off in the kids toilet. For ur infor, I don't smell or have any discharge, I smell as clean and sweet as can be*flicks her back and bites on my crunchy juicy apple*
ReplyDeleteDidn't want to comment but I had to. Say what? You don't have any discharge? Babe you aint normal or healthy. Every woman discharges at one point or the other on an ordinary day .check your self well or maybe you don't know what you are saying.
DeleteI sleep naked but hubby always wants to have sex and he started sleeping naked too. Now am preggers *sigh* i need to do family planning asap because pregnancy no be childs play.
ReplyDeleteI wear my panties to bed even my hubby knows i can't sleep without my pant. Reason is this, i don't want cockroach to enter my bum bum, that's what i was told when i was little. @sparkle
ReplyDeleteYour house must be very dirty and unkempt for cockroaches to be everywhere. I won't sleep a night in your house, won't even eat anything u cook.. I hate them roaches!

I was diagnosed with BV two weeks ago here in the UK.I was given the antiboitic METRONIDAZOLE and was advised to take it as a single dose and also not to take alchohol during the treatment and for 48hrs afterward.This is because it reacts with alcohol and can make u feel unwell.I hope this helps.
ReplyDeleteI agree with the post but I no fit comply. Lack of "paent" to bed go mean constant action from my oga at the top and I no fit abeg. The thing no dey tire my oga and seeing my naked arse every night go compound the issue
ReplyDeleteMy own Palava is dat I go to bed with my Bra on. Please what is d side effect of that?
ReplyDeleteDat means your bobby no big......I wear 44dd and if I wear bra sleep na chest pain and back ache be dat.......some people say it helps the boobs to stay firm but for me I don't give a care cos the boobs no kuku stand before so nothing spoil....
DeleteLol @ anon 8:41pm
Deletewhy should i change the heading to pants?pants refers to trousers..i am talking about the pdgin way P-A-E-N-T

ReplyDeleteHygiene education na serious and sensitive health issue that can not be over publicized.
Infact,such awareness shouldn't be limited here,
women must continue within their various capacity

Physical or beauty appearance is more of a concern among our ladies nowadays than sensitive matters as health.
Na God go help us oo!!
