Now that you’re growing up, you are responsible for your body and keeping it healthy and clean. That includes your intimate areas.
Tissues in intimate areas are extremely sensitive. Washing too little or too much can cause some problems. So, read on for some helpful tips.
1-Wash intimate areas a maximum of twice daily, morning and evening. Washing more frequently can cause irritation.
2-Hot water, repeated soaping, and harsh products can harm the protective film coating the vaginal walls.
3-Rinse well after washing intimate areas.
4-Dry carefully.
5-If necessary, apply a soothing product.
6-Avoid antiseptic products and use gentle, soap-free cleansing solutions.
7-Wash intimate areas with your hands – bath mitts are teeming with microbes.
8-Wear clean underwear every day and opt for cotton garments rather than synthetic fabric or silk.
9-Avoid tight clothing, as it can cause chafing.
10-During periods, change your pad or tampon regularly.
