The vagina is one part of the female body that cleanses itself. However, as ladies we do certain things to our vagina thinking that it’s going to be beneficial in a way. But it doesn’t. It is really important that the vagina is taken care of properly to avoid being at the risk of several uncomfortable and itchy infections.
There are however, certain things that you should never allow into your vagina such as:
1. Steam
It is quite unsafe to steam your vagina. Some ladies do this with the intention of cleaning the vagina. However, this is quite unsafe and can be harmful because your vagina can burn.
2. Oil-based Products
Oil-based Products such as vaseline, olive oil, baby oil which are often used as lubricants during sex are highly dangerous. These petroleum products can expose your vagina to so many infections.
3. Fruits And Vegetables
Inserting fruits and vegetables such as carrots, cucumber, etc into your vagina is very harmful. There are a variety of bacteria and pesticides that we expose our vagina to when these fruits and vegetables are inserted into it.
4. Soap
Using soap to wash the vagina is the most disguised form of harm because it can be extremely detrimental to a lady’s health. Washing your vagina with soap reduces the vagina’s natural bacteria and can cause bacterial infections and pelvic inflammatory disease.
