Women with inflammation of the reproductive tract can do vaginal douching before applying local medication and then inserting the medication. This can improve the efficacy and eliminate local discomfort. Therefore, some women often request vaginal douching. They believe that vaginal douching can increase the antibacterial ability of the vagina and assist in the treatment of various types of vaginitis. In fact, this view is incorrect. In particular, self-prepared or commercially available douching solutions and devices make vaginal douching unsafe. After a study conducted abroad, it was found that those who frequently use commercially available douching devices have a 3-4 times higher risk of ectopic pregnancy than those who never do vaginal douching; for those who use disposable devices, the risk rate also increases by more than 3 times; whether it is commercially available or self-prepared douching solution, the risk rate will increase by 3-4 times. Moreover, frequent vaginal douching will disrupt the balance of the vaginal environment and may also be the cause of gynecological diseases such as salpingitis, pelvic inflammatory disease, infertility, and even ectopic pregnancy. The reason is related to the following four factors. First, vaginal douching can damage the normal structure of the fallopian tube, leading to salpingitis, pelvic inflammatory disease, etc.; Second, if the contaminated solution that is not strictly disinfected or even not disinfected enters the fallopian tube, it may cause fallopian tube infection with no obvious symptoms, or salpingitis and pelvic inflammatory disease, followed by scar formation at the site of inflammation and surrounding tissues; Third, the infectious pathogens that originally existed in the vagina or cervix can invade the fallopian tubes during vaginal douching; Fourth, the flushing fluid itself may damage the ciliated epithelial structure of the fallopian tube or have an adverse stimulating effect. Therefore, vaginal flushing can only be used occasionally under the guidance of a doctor and should not be used frequently. In fact, as long as you wash your vulva and change your underwear every day, you can achieve the purpose of cleansing your body. There is no need for vaginal douching, which may cause new diseases instead of preventing them. |
