Many girls and women question whether they
should clean the inside of their vaginas on a
regular basis. Actually, it is not necessary
to clean the inside of the vagina. A woman's
vagina is self-cleaning - it gets rids of
mucus, menstrual fluid, and old cells that
are no longer needed. Besides having
menstrual periods, women may have other
vaginal discharges - whitish-yellow
secretions that are normal and healthy. It's
also normal to have a natural genital odor.
Some women douche - they spray a special
solution (usually a water/vinegar mixture)
into the vagina to clean it. But douching
isn't necessary, and it can even be harmful,
especially if scented products are used.
Douching can upset the balance of vaginal
bacteria, which can cause vaginitis, an
inflammation of the vagina. So, let nature
do the work!
