Candida Albicans (Yeast Infections)
Can Wearing No Underwear Really Help?

If you’ve ever had a yeast infection, or even if you have just talked about it with your doctor or friends, you may have been told that one way to deal with candida albincans (yeast infections) is to wear no underwear.

One possible cause of a yeast infection is wearing clothing that is too tight, especially materials other than cotton. This tight clothing holds in moisture and even dirt, creating the perfect environment for yeast to breed.
