Don't wash your lower body with soap

Female sexual organs have a natural defense function. This natural defense mechanism mainly refers to the large number of lactobacilli living in the female vagina. They can convert glycogen in the vaginal epithelial cells into lactic acid, thereby maintaining an acidic environment in the vagina and preventing other pathogenic bacteria from growing. Under the action of estrogen, the vaginal secretions of normal adult women are acidic, which makes the female vulva environment acidic. This acidic environment is a natural barrier for the body to protect itself, which can block the invasion of bacteria and greatly reduce the chances of women suffering from diseases such as urethritis and vaginitis.

Change sanitary napkins frequently and choose good quality ones. Wash the vulva with warm water twice a day. We advocate using warm boiled water as the cleaning liquid because the water has been disinfected after boiling. Avoid taking cold showers or washing with cold water, even in the summer.
