Sleeping naked benefits intimate health and more: giving up pajamas, and especially underwear, reduces the risk of irritation and might also help you sleep better.
Emma Woodrow, the lingerie buyer for Pour Moi, explains why: “Sleeping in tight, uncomfortable underwear can lead to multiple health issues, including irritation, chafing, infections (due to the buildup of bacteria), and unpleasant odors.”
As warmer weather approaches, it’s likely that intimate areas will be sweatier than usual, causing a greater buildup of moisture, which can lead to infections.
Additionally, during hot nights, you may experience swelling, and tight underwear can leave marks or cause irritation, leading to discomfort in the morning.”
Three Reasons to Sleep Naked in Summer
It Allows Your Skin to Breathe
In summer, intimate areas can become particularly sweaty, so sleeping without underwear is a great way to let your skin recover from a day under multiple layers of clothing. Allowing air to circulate around the intimate area can help reduce irritation, rashes, or any other skin discomfort you might experience.
It Reduces the Risk of Infections and Irritations
During hot nights, the intimate area might be sweatier than usual, as more moisture is likely to accumulate if you wear tight underwear. By giving up underwear, you stay drier and reduce the risk of bacterial buildup, which means fewer infections.
It’s More Comfortable
Sleeping without underwear is much more comfortable for your skin. Your body won’t feel restricted by tight fabrics, and your skin will be free from marks or irritations left by tight panties. If you have trouble sleeping, sleeping naked might help you sleep better and enjoy a more restful night.
