Underwear's Shelf Life: When to Toss Your Old Undergarments

Your underwear is like a team member that works hard to keep you comfy, but it also traps yucky stuff like sweat and germs.

That's why it's important to change them daily, and sometimes even twice a day, especially if you're sweating a lot.

Think of it like brushing your teeth; you wouldn't use the same toothbrush for a year, right?

Experts suggest replacing your underwear every 6 to 12 months because even washing can't get rid of all the bacteria.

You'll know it's time to toss them if they're stretched out, have holes, stains, or smell bad.

Choosing cotton underwear helps your skin stay healthy.

Keeping on top of this might be a small thing, but it keeps you feeling fresh and healthy!
