Maintaining va ginal cleanliness is important for the overall health of ladies, the big mistake most of us make is using different products out there when va gina are self-cleaning.
We always want to keep our lady-bits clean while unknowingly hurting it in the process of taking care of it.
Here are some mistakes every lady must avoid.
Wearing underwears that are too tight or wet: Wear cotton undies and avoid anything super tight, It’s also important to get out of sweaty or otherwise wet panties or bathing suit bottoms as soon as possible so you can dry out.
Using scented soap: Its true sometimes you want to give your va gina’s a bit of extra help, but they are technically self-cleaning. cleaning the external parts is totally fine but with unscented soaps and wipes it’s a NO NO.

Wiping back to front: Your va gina and butt both have bacteria living in them but separately important to the overall functioning of those areas. It is important to wipe front to back when cleaning or use two hands when playing around in both of those areas s3xually.
Douching: If you’re experiencing unpleasant vaginal odours, see a doctor to find out the underlying cause. Douching “clean out” your va ginal canal which in turn mess with the natural pH balance of your va gina.
Your diet is not balanced: Make sure to stay hydrated and eat a balanced diet of nutritious foods, unsweetened cranberry juice, yogurt, raw garlic, and apple cider vinegar are great to combat or even prevent a yeast infection.
Not changing tampons and pads often enough: Keeping sodden pads on longer than 3-4hrs makes things warm and moist just the way bacteria loves it. Don’t wear pads when you’re not on your period to catch your usual discharge, because it will just warm everything up
