How often should you change your pyjamas: Woman admits wearing dirty pjs ‘multiple’ times

Persistent dirty pyjamas can lead to serious health issues like infections, skin irritations, poor hygiene and bad odour.

Re-worn pyjamas can also gather dried sweat during the night, heightening odour. Even if you’re showering before bed, if you get into bed in used pyjamas, you’re essentially undoing any bathing.

Anyone suffering from allergies may need to change their pyjamas and bedsheets more frequently as dirty pyjamas can acquire a significant amount of dust.

Asthma, dust allergies, and other respiratory issues are typically more challenging to control at night because you’re lying down, making it harder to breathe.
