Is it safe to use pantyliners everyday?

I would avoid wearing them. I think the commercials will just say that it's breathable but I just don't believe that. I have learned that these products are made from recycled paper and my gynecologist even advised me not to wear underwear at home because anyone can be prone to infection since the bacteria likes to thrive on warm and moist environment. She even advised to wear 100 percent pure cotton underwear. You can still be fresh without it. I get to wash several times a day or change underwear several or wear loose cotton under shorts at home. It isn't advisable for women who are prone to infection specially yeast and urinary tract infections.

I never heard that panty liners can develop kidney problems, much better if you will visit your OB-Gynie regards to that.

Yes, wearing panty liners everyday and long hours can develop diseases. The thing is there is a plastic component of pantyliners same is through with feminine napkins. It can produce inflammatory and rashes to female organ. More advisable that you will only use it during ovulation period or before your expected menstrual. The organ wants to breath too and hates heat.

I Wear them many times but when I'm just at home, I use clean cloth like old panties as my liners...I don't like wearing them much so I try not just use them when really needed.

I wear panty-liners everyday except weekends if I will only stay home, and I didn't know that it can cause kidney problem,but I'll try to research about this because I also don't want to have kidney problems just because I use that. thank you for your info.

Wearing pantyliner everyday can lead to bacterial infection! I know you say its breathable but the adhesive at the bottom of it is made of plastic and skin is unable to breathe through plastic. If your pantyliner has a breathable backsheet instead, then there would be added chemicals in it which could irritate the skin. I always say, the less chemicals the better! Pantyliners were made more for spotting days than for wearing daily basis. I thought of using them once too everyday so it would make washing my undies easier since there's no contact between the skin and the undies but reading up on it made me think twice. Try those disposable undies.

i don't wear panty liners everyday.i have a close friendd back in highschool and at a young age, she already got a urinary tract infection... and then her ob gyne told her that it is the panty liners that she wear daily that caused her to have uti...

Hi chiwasaki! I'm not sure about the kidney problems, I have never heard of that. But a friend told me once before that you can easily get UTI if you wear pantyliners everyday. I don't know if it's true though. I think I might ask this when I go back to my doctor. But I don't really wear pantyliners everyday. I don't feel comfortable when I'm wearing one because it feels warm. I only wear a pantyliner when I'm expecting my period and when my period is finished or almost finished. I think it's best not to wear pantyliners most of the time since no matter how breathable it is as they say, it would still hamper the flow of air there.

i use pantyliners everyday and i've never had any problem with it :)

I don't wear pantyliners very often. I know some people that spot though and need to do so, I on the other hand do not. I can't see it being bad for you in any way though. If you're really concerned I would just suggest bringing it up with your OBGYN when you have your next appointment. Until then, I think you'll be fine! :-)

I think it is safe to use every day since it keeps your panty clean from the discharge. I think you will only develop tract infection if you wear the panty liners for too long.

Your friends are right in telling you it's not safe. Check the product love moon anion. It's a panty liner and they also have sanitary pads that has ion in it to make you healthy when using it. Ordinary pantiliners and sanitary pads use cottons that are unsafe to our body. It can cause irritation to our genitals.

Me, I don't regularly wear panty liners. I only use it before menstrual period and after. and it is advised to change new liner every hour so as not to irritate us from infection. Too much usage of it without proper hygiene will develop problem on the external genitalia and the cervix, rather than on the kidney itself...

I have to use liners all the time as I "leak" from a prolapsed uteris. Now with that said that in it self give you a higher chance of getting a uti, but my obgyn said to use liner, maxies what ever works, but too keep your self clean and change them often. I do not get utis from this and I have been like this for over five years. One just has to be carefull and keep your self clean and change them on a regular basis. Yes they do collect bacteria, but so do your underwear. I use alway cleaning wipes or a baby wipe to make sure I am clean. Good luck!

hi dear friend, i use panty liners and i am using them from past six years. i have never developed any urinary tract infection, so i think that not must be the case.i pray to GOD that i do not develop any urinary tract infection in future also. but i think the females who have discharge problem, should change their liners fast. they should not carry it all along the day , night till the next day they take bath, that can give an infection. personal physical hygiene is very important for everyone so infection can develop if you go in a mall and go to some very dirty toilet to pee. so there can be many cases . it is not just panty liners that can be the case for urinary infection.

I think its good to use pantyliners daily to also keep the underwear clean and easy to wash. I don't use it everyday but it is important to have it when working. It helps to absorb odor and wetness and keep the panty clean for long hours especially if your working and you don't carry an extra underwear. There is a possibility of UTI if you don't replace them often or when you use a cheap pantyliner that easily tear or the fiber easily tear. I think I would wear that too more often, I think its good practice for personal hygiene.
