Women, do you think you understand yourself enough? Every woman should know some truths about her body, especially those little secrets about the reproductive organs that are not widely talked about. Maybe you've found yourself standing in front of a mirror, scrutinizing your body and quietly asking, "Is this normal?" Is it like everyone else's?" You may have also wondered, how exactly should I clean my vagina? Is it okay to use something other than water? Many people have questions about this topic, but due to embarrassment and uncertainty, they don't dare to discuss it with others. Understanding and caring for your own body is every woman's right, and there is no need for fear or shame. Our bodies are all unique, every inch of skin, every curve, and every part's function is a natural and unique expression. Let's lift some of the fog and reveal the truths about your "lower half"
First, the vagina is not something that needs constant cleaning like a "stain." Many people mistakenly believe that the vagina becomes dirty and starts emitting unpleasant odours when it's not cleaned for a long time. But that's not the case. The | vagina is like a self-sufficient little factory that can keep itself clean. It naturally has a self-cleaning function, like a little housekeeper always cleaning its corners to maintain its health. So, the vagina doesn't need "deep cleaning," and especially, you should never use any kind of soap to wash it. You may have noticed that your underwear has different amounts of white discharge depending on the season. Every time you see this discharge, do you think, Has the season changed, and now my vagina is 'changing seasons' too?" This is not unusual. The change of seasons does not directly affect the function of the vagina, but our body does undergo subtle changes in different environments. In other words, the change of seasons, like shifts in climate, does have some effect on your body, but most of these changes are perfectly normal.
Sometimes, vaginal issues may appear under special circumstances, like when you’re dealing with "wetness." Don't panic, it could be because you haven't cleaned your vulva area properly, or you’ve been in a damp environment for a long time. Now, you need to think about whether you've been neglecting your vagina area every time you finish showering. Experts suggest using a hair dryer to dry the vulva area after intercourse or showering, especially with cool air. This not only helps you feel fresher and more comfortable, but it can also help prevent yeast infections. You can think of it as your "drying time." just like giving your phone a "blow-dry" when it's in a humid environment. After drying, the moisture in the vulva area is like dust being washed away, and bacteria are less likely to thrive.
At this point, you might think this all sounds like a complicated art, with so many things to pay attention to, and it might be a bit overwhelming. But if you're confused about some issues, feel free to ask your doctor. Many people feel embarrassed when they see a gynaecologist and hesitate to ask certain questions. They worry that their questions might make the doctor uncomfortable. In reality. Gynaecologists are not surprised by these issues. They are professionals and have handled countless similar matters. I am sure you can speak freely about sexual activity. Orgasms, or even concerns about shaving your pubic hair. Doctors have seen it all and know how to help. They will become your most trustworthy friend when you need them.
Don't let these natural body changes become a burden on your mind. Your body belongs to you, and it constantly reminds you in the most natural way how to take care of it. Understand it, accept it, and treat this organ with openness, just like you would with a close friend. If you continue to hide and cover up, you'll be less likely to recognize your own needs. Every woman should know that the normality of her reproductive organs does not depend on external standards, but on whether she feels comfortable and healthy.
