⑤ Do not over-clean: Some women are accustomed to flushing the vagina for a long time, thinking that this can keep it clean and prevent vaginitis. In fact, this practice will flush away the beneficial bacteria in the vagina, destroy the normal defense function of the vagina, and make it more likely to cause vaginitis. When suffering from vaginitis, it is often prone to urinary tract infection. Therefore, healthy women only need to wash their vulva and keep it clean.
