N questions about the most private part of a woman's lower body

The vulva is the most private part of women and is a place that is embarrassing to show to others. However, because it is related to "sex", quite a number of people have mystified it. In fact, the vulva, like other parts of the human body, is a serious and ordinary organ. It is not only the lower triangular "outlet" for defecation, but also the mating organ for couples' sexual life. As a woman, you should always pay attention to your body, including the health of your external genitalia. Therefore, you may wish to check your vulva regularly. The methods for women to self-examine their vulva can be summarized in three words: "look, smell, and touch."

"see"

You can use a small mirror, place it under the vulva, move the mirror back and forth, left and right, and use the help of the mirror to observe your vulva. In addition, some clues can be found by observing vaginal secretions, such as the color, clarity, and thickness of leucorrhea and menstrual blood. Normal leucorrhea is a thin liquid of clear white color, normal menstrual blood is bright red or light red, and some people may have a small amount of blood clots.

"smell"

It is to use your nose to smell the odor of secretions, menstrual blood or vulva. The normal smell is generally a light fishy smell, sweaty sour smell or no smell. If there is a fishy, ​​rancid, or peculiar smell, there may be a problem.

"touch"

Wash your hands first, and use the "pads" (commonly known as "finger pads") of your index and middle fingers to press the vulva in sequence, starting from the "mons pubis" area, from top to bottom, until the anus. When you touch the vulva normally, it should feel smooth and soft. If you don't press hard, you won't feel any pain. Of course, under normal circumstances, you shouldn't feel any small nodules or lumps. Otherwise, you may be sick.
