Vaginal Health: Tips To Care & Upkeep “Down There”
Hey ladies, how’s it going with your “down there” area?
Do you, like many other women, confuse the terms vulva and vagina?
They are two different areas. Let’s review them.
What is the Vulva?
The vulva encompasses and protects your external genitalia, including your pubic mount, clitoris, labia and opening to the vagina, as well as your urethra, the urinary opening.
What is the Vagina?
The vagina connects the vulva to the cervix, and ultimately, to the uterus. It is the canal that allows for monthly menstruation and childbirth.
It might not be the most glamorous topic, but it’s crucial to our overall well-being. Our “down there” area deserves some TLC, so continue reading to learn more about ….
TIPS TO KEEP OUR LADY BITS IN TIP-TOP SHAPE
-
KEEP IT CLEAN & HEALTHY
Cleaning your vulvovaginal area is simple:
- Avoid scented pads and liners.
- Wash daily with warm water – soap is optional but use a gentle soap like Dove-Hypoallergenic or Neutrogena. Use your fingers instead of washcloth.
- Avoid using special scrubs, scented soaps and douching – even products that say they’re designed for vaginal care. These can also throw off your natural PH balance and bring on infection.
- After using the toilet, wipe the front and then in the back. Doing the reverse could transfer bacteria to the urethra and cause a urinary tract infection.
- Consuming probiotics like yogurt can help prevent yeast infections and reduce vaginal odor by keeping your vagina’s pH levels in order. (Do not put yogurt into your vagina! It’s sugars and can encourage yeast to grow).
- Staying well hydrated keeps bacterial overgrowth in check.
-
CLEAN SEX
Your vulva is not just an essential part of your body, it’s also a source of pleasure! So taking good care of it by shielding it from harmful chemicals and bacteria is super important.
-
Before
Before applying any lubricants down there, make sure to check the ingredients list. Some lubricants may contain unhealthy chemicals that can mess with your pH balance. So it’s best to steer clear of lubricants that contain:
-
- Glycerin
- Petroleum products
- Parabens
- Scents
- Flavors
- Non-natural oils
- Dyes
-
During
If you’re swapping between anal and vaginal sex (or vice versa), use a fresh condom every time. Your anus could be carrying harmful bacteria that could lead to infection or irritation in your vagina. Similarly, your vagina has bacteria that could do the same to your anus. So use a new condom each time, it’s better to be safe than sorry!
-
After
After sex, make sure to pee to flush out bacteria and avoid UTIs. Take a quick shower or clean your vulva with warm water and dry the area thoroughly.
-
SAY NO TO TIGHT CLOTHES
To keep your vulvovaginal area happy and healthy, it’s essential to pick clothes that let it breathe easy and stay dry. Moisture can create a breeding ground for bacteria, which can cause infections.
- Wear breathable cotton underwear
- Avoid tight clothing and thongs
- Change clothes and underwear after working out
- Change underwear twice a day if experiencing heavy discharge
- Skip underwear at night to reduce sweating
THE ULTIMATE WAY TO KEEPING YOUR ‘V’ HAPPY & HEALTHY
It’s so important to take care of your vagina as beyond its physiological functions, it’s the centre of pleasure and a source of confidence. And if you want to give your ‘Little Lady V’ a little extra love, consider LASER VAGINA TIGHTENING and THUZZLE. It’s not just for health issues, but for extra oomph and confidence.
Laser vagina tightening and Thuzzle are two methods used to strengthen the pelvic floor muscles. Just like how you go to the gym to work out your muscles and keep your body healthy, these treatments help work out and strengthen the muscles in your vagina and stimulate collagen production in the vaginal walls. This can help with things like bladder control and more intense and pleasurable orgasms during sex, and who doesn’t want that?
