How should women clean their private parts?

In daily life, women will clean their private parts, such as the vulva, vagina and anus, but there are still patients with inflammatory gynecological diseases. According to the descriptions of many patients, it is found that women do not pay attention to hygiene when cleaning and the cleaning methods are not equal. So how do women clean their private parts? Let's learn about it together below, I hope everyone has some understanding. In fact, there are many aspects to pay attention to when cleaning, such as:

1. Water

Most women like to mix tap water and boiled water together. Although this generally does not cause serious problems, it is very likely to cause vaginitis if the resistance is reduced or the tap water is contaminated. It is best to cool the boiled water to a suitable temperature when cleaning the vulva.

2. Basin

The basin used for washing the vulva must be used by one person only. It is advisable to choose an enamel or stainless steel basin that is smaller than a washbasin. It is best not to use a plastic basin, as the walls of such basins may become rough due to aging and are prone to bacterial parasitism.

3. Towel

To prevent cross infection, women are advised to prepare two towels. One is used to scrub the vulva; the other is used to scrub the back, i.e. the anus. Because the perineum and anus are very close, using the same towel can easily bring anal bacteria into the vagina and cause vaginitis. Especially for those with anal fissures and hemorrhoids, towels must be used separately. Towels should be washed in boiling water after use and dried in the sun.

4. Do not abuse acid and alkali solutions

If the acid-base solution does not meet the requirements, the vagina will be corroded and damaged; or the pH balance in the vagina will be disrupted, causing bacteria to multiply in the vagina and leading to infection and inflammation of the reproductive system. In addition, local damage or infection may also be caused due to reasons such as disinfection and operation.

5. Wash when going out

When you go out, sanitary conditions vary. Some hotels have incomplete cleaning and disinfection work, or even in name only. Bathtubs, towels, and toilets may all be contaminated. Therefore, in order to prevent cross infection and ensure safety, it is best to bring your own basin and towel to clean the vulva. Try to use squat toilets for urination and defecation. It is better to take a shower instead of a bath in a tub.

After reading the article, most patients have a correct understanding of how women clean their private parts. Women should observe the precautions when cleaning themselves. If there are any abnormalities or incorrectness, they should make improvements or changes. Correct cleaning can effectively prevent gynecological diseases and prevent the invasion of bacteria and infection. It is also beneficial to the partner, so everyone needs to pay attention to it.
