Intimate hygiene of women

The genitals of a woman should pay increased attention during hygiene procedures, because it is these organs that are responsible for the reproduction of the body. The internal cavity of the uterus should remain sterile, and the infection from the anus should be excluded. The mucus generated from the uterus and located at the entrance to the vagina protects the organs from bacteria, so you should not use ordinary soap.

Lactobacteria of the vagina with lactic acid prevent bacteria from the outside, so soap products with alkali content can reduce the content of beneficial bacteria and lead to the reproduction of microbes. The wrong vaginal medium can lead to dysbiosis (vaginosis or thrush) of female childbearing organs. Such inflammatory processes with neglect of hygiene rules can cause other more serious gynecological diseases.

Before and after sexual contact, both partners should carry out hygiene procedures of the genital organs, hands and mouth, if necessary. If the partner is not constant, then you should not neglect condoms to protect against unknown infections. Medical studies also prove that the long -term wearing of narrow synthetic linen and thong leads to the spread of bacteria from the anus to the female organs.

Also, women are not recommended to use gaskets daily if menstruation has not occurred. Although many manufacturers call their hygienic products daily, it is strictly forbidden to use every day. If you are concerned about abundant discharge, then you should seek consultation and treatment for a doctor, and the gaskets should be changed at least four times a day.
