If women want to reduce the incidence of gynecological diseases, private hygiene is very important. In order to ensure the hygiene of their private parts, many women often use lotion to clean them. Although this can reduce bacterial growth, frequent use of washes will also change the weak acid environment of the vagina. Generally speaking, warm water can be used to clean women's private parts. If inflammation occurs, you can use a cleansing lotion under the guidance of a doctor. The private parts are one of the important organs of women. How to clean the private parts is a proposition that contemporary women must know. Correct cleaning of the private parts can keep them clean and free from bacteria, but incorrect cleaning methods can bring great hidden dangers to the health of the private parts. 1. About the acidity and alkalinity of the private parts: The private parts have a weakly acidic environment, and the pH value is generally between 3.8 and 4.5. 2. About vaginal discharge: Under normal circumstances, vaginal discharge is odorless, cool and transparent. However, many pathogenic bacteria infections can cause changes in leucorrhea. Therefore, women should pay attention to the condition of leucorrhea and seek treatment as soon as possible if the color or state changes. 3. About odor: If you often feel a fishy or sour smell in your private parts, it may be caused by bacterial vaginosis. The odor is usually particularly strong after menstruation or after sex. 4. About bleeding: Abnormal vaginal bleeding is often a sign of certain diseases, such as endometritis, cervicitis, uterine fibroids, etc. 5. About itching: Vaginal redness, swelling, and itching are mostly caused by vaginitis. There are many reasons for vaginitis, but most of them are closely related to daily life and hygiene habits. 6. Regarding the burning sensation: If you experience frequent urination, urgency, and pain when urinating, it is very likely a bacterial urinary tract infection. In rare cases, there may be an accompanying burning sensation from an external source, which may be due to recurrent vulvovaginitis, trauma to the private parts, or other problems. Misconceptions about private parts cleaning Myth 1: Using lotion for daily private cleaning Since the female private parts have the function of self-defense, washing with lotion every day will reduce its self-cleaning ability and destroy its own defense function. However, when minor discomforts such as itching, odor, abnormal vaginal discharge, etc. occur; as well as after swimming, before and after sexual intercourse, during menstruation, staying in hotels, public toilets and other poor sanitation environments, it is necessary to use professional female private parts care products for necessary antibacterial protection. Myth 1: Using lotion will harm your body Professionals recommend not to use cleansing liquid instead of water for daily private part cleaning, because it will develop the private parts' dependence on external forces. However, in the event of private discomfort and bacterial crisis, women must use professional private care products to take necessary antibacterial and protective measures. |
