Wearing skinny jeans will cause yeast infection?

Answer 1

Yeast grows best in a dark, warm, and moist environment. There is little that can be done about the darkness and warmth, but keeping moisture to a minimum will help someone who frequently suffers from vaginal yeast infections. Sitting around in a wet bathing suit is an obvious no-no. Other ways to keep yeast at bay can include wearing absorbent cotton underwear, as opposed to microfiber, spandex, nylon or other synthetic fibers that are prone to trapping moisture, wearing looser-fitting clothes to promote better air circulation and speed evaporation (skirts, dresses), or (you guessed it) larger cut jeans rather than skinny jeans.
