Experts reveal the best and worst underwear to wear for your health.

Breathability is key - Opt for lighter fabrics like cotton to help air circulate around the crotch area, which is important for vulvar health.

Keep things loose - avoid the "tighty whitie" adage and pick undergarments that don't ride-up or cause chafing.
