Do these tend to cause yeast infections or is the quick drying, breathability of them prevent them?

I prefer this underwear when im hiking, backpacking, working out or when I know I will be sweating a lot. They are made of the quick drying material and dry ultra fast. Cotton is comfortable until it gets wet. Then is sticky anf takes forever to dry. I also take this underware when im traveling. Since they dry so fast I can just wash every day and pack less.

Personally I feel dryer with a cotton or a Target brand micro fiber. I love the bra from this brand but I am very disappointed in the underwear performance both on and off the body. They are very expensive and I do not see the benefits of them wearing dryer or drying that much quicker when hand washed.

I typically wear cotton, but use these for traveling when I'll be doing a lot of outdoor activities like hiking, biking, etc. I wore both cotton & these in Costa Rica & these were far superior in wicking & drying after washing. My cotton ones were all sweaty & stuck to me. I'd guess these would prevent the yeasty beasties if you're sweating & continue wearing them more so than cotton.

My feet hardly sweat at all, so I'm guessing they might make yours sweat a lot. They aren't wool, but they're absorbent. I'm not sure that helps.

Unless you use them regularly, they may lose moisture. I keep mine in a Zip bag.

They are wet. The reason why these are really good is that there are no harsh chemicals. So no irritants.

No, they are not antibacterial. They are microfiber which means that they will dry quickly which will cut down on bacterial growth.

I have been using these back to back since late July, with several washes in between and that has never happen to me. I wash them with a hot cycle meant for heavy cotton and then rinse a second time. I have never used a dryer on them, that could be why yours are balling up. I just hang dry for a few hours.

These are a more absorbent and better fitting style of depends. My grandmother or these through the night without leaks and she found them very comfortable. They are disposable, one time use and you do not wear a pad with them.

We have been macine-drying these (on low) for 5 months and have not seen any quality loss. We only put them outside to remove stains. They dry fast, as long as the dryer isn't too full!

No they are not. They are very quick drying, and do shed water somewhat, but are not meant to be a waterproof layer.

I can't attest to breathable of not but they seem to be what I've seen potpourri in. I use them for lingerie!

I live in a super humid environment. They work best when they're damp and have airflow over them. They're going to be sticky and as uncomfortable as any athletic clothing would be at that humidity, but your skin is still protected. If you're at that level of humidity and in the sun, it's going to suck with or without the sleeves.

The outside can get damp depending on how much they go. I have had no problems with them becoming soaked or anything like that. I have not noticed any problems with skin breakdown or oder either. Hope this helps.

Not a problem here. I wouldn't put them through a sanitize cycle, but a plain hot wash/cold rinse/air dry has worked perfectly for us.

Yes, they dry completely since the bottom is ventilated. I have not encountered any mildew/mold buildup, but it would still be wise to clean it once a month or so.

Yes very quick-drying! I have several pair in different styles and I also have shorts in same fabric! They feel great on!

I use them for showering. In the time it takes you to shower it should not be an issue if you take it off after you dry off.

These are for daytime use. It is recommended that they be worn for 20-30 minutes but it really depends on the humidity level where you apply them. I use mine for 15-20 minutes because my climate is very dry. They thin out quickly if left on too long. Also, though it doesn't say so on the package, I use mine up to three times by rinsing them in rosewater or similar pure fluid and then store them in a ziplock and refrigerate them. The effects are immediate and amazing -- but not necessarily long-lasting. I suppose that the more you use them, the more benefit. I do love them and they are always one of my gift requests.
