I've heard they're not very healthy for you but I'm not sure why? Do you wear thongs? Are they uncomfortable? Or do you get used to then? Are they "unhealthy" in any way? Thanks!

I don't see why they would be unhealthy in any way.
I find them very comfortable but really had to get used to them at first. The only time I wear them though is when I don't want any underwear lines to show.

I think they're super comfortable! Whenever I wear normal panties I feel like I'm in a diaper or something haha but I've never heard anything about them being unhealthy in any way.

Really it depends on the person if they are comfortable or uncomfortable. Also the fabric can cause it to be uncomfortable. I had one that I wore for a day and never wore it again because the fabric it was made out of just bothered me.

At first I felt weird wearing them but now I'm used to it and sometimes I even forget I'm wearing a thong , but I see it being unhealthy wise bc sometimes their tight I would say and that can cause yeast infections which btw are the worst!!

I guess the only reason they can be labeled as unhealthy is if they're too tight. But then again, regular panties can be too tight sometimes also! So I guess thongs aren't the problem; it's buying the wrong size that's the problem!

Well they do put you at a bit of a higher risk of getting a yeast infection or UTI. This is because the thong is very close to your colon, and the E.coli and other bacteria spreads more easily to your vagina. Also, depending on the fabric, it can cause irritation or an imbalance and change the environment that your vagina is in causing yeast infections. But it can easily be avoided by being clean and careful when choosing your thong (s)

Most of my undies are thongs. I usually wear them with jeans so I won't be showing any lines and when I'm wearing leggings or yoga pants I just don't wear any undies at all lol. You honestly just have to get used to them. I don't ever notice them anymore really.

I only wear them when I wear leggings! I am still not used to the feel of them!

I wear them almost every day because then I don't have to worry about panty lines through my jeans 👌

I only wear thongs. They could be considered "unhealthy" because people believe they get dirtier or collects more bacteria. But it's always good to practice good hygiene habits anyways thongs or not!

This might sound weird but thongs are considered unhealthy because they go on your butt and can rub around that area.. If you know what I mean lol, personally I like them, I think they're comfy depending on the fabric and stuff :)
