Using Thongs

Huffpost

Love ‘em or hate ‘em, most women have used a thong at least once in their lives. Some don’t mind the feeling of “flossing,” while other can’t stand to wear thongs or G-strings at all. Another doctor, Dr. Jill M. Rabin, also told The Huffington Post about this other underwear mistake, “If you have a little bacteria — E. coli is the most common bacteria in the colon — in the back part of the fabric and you’re physically active, that material may move.” She continued, “All it has to do is move an inch or two and it’s next to the vagina or urethra. That thong may be depositing colonic bacteria into your vagina or urethra.” If this isn’t enough to gross you out from wearing thongs, then just make sure that if you still insist on using them, be sure to by cotton ones and don’t use them for too long.
