Many people may think it is better to wash with hot water because it can be disinfected, but in fact it is not good, it is easy to burn underwear, destroy the fiber components inside, and easily lead to fading and deformation of underwear. Therefore, if the weather is not too cold, everyone should wash it with cold water. Of course, if it is winter and the water temperature is cold, you can wash it with warm water.

But washing with warm water also depends on the situation. It doesn't matter what underwear you change. The most important thing is not to wash with hot water during menstruation. Women come to menstruation once a month, and leakage may occur if they are not careful. If menstrual blood gets on underwear, because there is protein in menstrual blood, if it is put in hot water, it will coagulate protein, so it is difficult to remove blood. Therefore, when you wash your underwear with menstrual blood, you must soak it in cold water before washing it, and then wipe it with soap, which will be easy to clean.

In addition, after washing underwear, everyone must clean the foam with clear water, so that there is no residue on it, which is also very bad for health. If time permits, you can soak your underwear in clean water, remove the foam, and then expose it to the sun, which can sterilize it.

To sum up, it is best to use cold water when washing underwear. Unfortunately, I have been doing something wrong before. No wonder underwear is always dirty and old. Moreover, this kind of underwear with residual blood can't be worn for too long, otherwise it will be harmful to the body and a great waste of money.
