Avoid the irritation of soap and shower gel. If there is no shower condition, a special basin should be used for washing.

Vulvar products Women have close contact with their underwear and sanitary napkins every month. If they are used improperly, it may cause problems with the vulva, so special attention should be paid at this time. Underwear: Women's underwear should be light-colored, loose-fitting, and made of pure cotton. Underwear must be hand washed, not machine washed or left overnight to prevent bacterial growth. It is recommended to change your underwear every three months. Sanitary napkins: Avoid using sanitary napkins with medicines or fragrances. Change sanitary napkins frequently, every two hours, to prevent menstrual blood from becoming a "petri dish" for bacteria. |
