In Finland people are told to not wear swimsuits to sauna not because you absolutely have to be naked but because if you've been in a chlorinated pool the chemicals vaporize in the sauna and are harmful to breathe.

Interesting. So would wearing underwear be fine then?

Underwear would probably be considered a bit unhygienic but I doubt anyone minds if you want to wear a towel.
