How many times a day and how should I shower?
According to experts, washing should be done twice a day - in the morning and in the evening. In the morning you can wash yourself with ordinary running water, and in the evening with a special intimate gel or soap with a slightly acidic environment, as in the vagina.
Wash frequently during your period, but don't take a bath.
Before touching the vagina, you need to wash your hands so as not to accidentally infect. After that, in the direction from front to back, you need to wash the vagina without directing the stream of water forward, since harmful microbes can be introduced from the anus (since the rectum is a source of pathogenic bacteria). Also, do not direct the stream of water inside and douching, so as not to wash out the natural microflora.
About towels and intimate hygiene products
Gynecologists recommend using a personal towel for the intimate area. Vagina notshould rub aggressively, should be gently blotted.
Many women use panty liners to keep their underwear fresh and clean. Such a pad should be changed three to four times a day, as microbes accumulate on the surface, which, if the hygiene product is not replaced in time, penetrate the vagina and reach the cervix.
During menstruation, it is also necessary to change pads or tampons in time, keep underwear and perineum clean.
