Q: Using the Clothes Dryer And Yeast Infections.

Has anybody ever heard that if you dry your underwear in a dryer, you can get chronic yeast infections?. My mother in law is so messed!!!. She strings her underwear, and her husbands up all over the house, becasue she said dryers give you yeast infections.



She said she has never got a yeast infection, and that is the reason why.


I don't think I dryer has anything to do with it. Clothes detergents, and fabric softeners maybe not gettign rinsed out well enough might.

I've never heard of that. But it must be quite a sight to see your mother in law and her husband's underwear hanging all over the house. Lol

I've never heard that either. Although I have heard that bath salts and bath bubbles can cause an irritation for people who are sensitive. This may be how she is confused.
Fortunately i've only had two yeast infections in my life. One was after a miscarriage, the other after my husband had vaginal sex after anal sex. Bad!!!! Bad!!!!!Bad!!! Never do that!!!!!
