What do you do for good vaginal health? We think about keeping our bodies healthy through diet and exercise and even good hygiene but no one ever talks about what to do down there. There are a number of things you can do to promote female vaginal health and here are five simple ways you can put into practice if you do not already!
1. Do not douche: Douching causes more harm than good, regardless of what advertisers want you to believe. It destroys the natural flora in your vagina and may lead to irritation or even infection.
2. Bathe right: You do not need to do any special or excessive cleaning down there for good vaginal health. It is a self-cleansing area that does just fine with gentle external washing with a mild soap. Do not make the mistake of using perfumed or abrasive soaps as these can irritate your female vaginal area.
3. Have smart sex: Having smart sex by using condoms can prevent you from an array of sexually transmitted diseases. Sexually transmitted diseases can be anything from embarrassing to having the potential for serious illness, infertility or even death.
4. Clean things that go down south: Be sure to properly clean female vaginal items like diaphragms, cervical caps, toys, or hands that are going to be touching your vagina or vulva. A simple wash with a mild hand soap and warm water will do just fine.
5. Let it breathe: Your vagina does not react well to being in tight clothes all the time nor does it react well to being in spandex, nylon or similar material for an extended period of time. Wearing looser clothing in your crotch area helps the air circulate properly as does wearing cotton non-thong and non-g-string panties at least some of the time. Letting it all loose when you are at home and sleeping helps air circulation, too.
Many women follow most of these female vaginal tips already, but following all of them can certainly help you practice good vaginal health for life.
Here is an extensive list of good vaginal care tips. For more female vaginal lists like that, please visit the InfoZooms Women's Health center.
