Be careful: washing the vagina during menstruation may lead to vaginitis

  As a woman, Xiaoqian is most dissatisfied with the "dirty thing" every month - menstruation. She hates menstrual blood very much, and she doesn't like sanitary napkins that are "dirty" after use, so after every menstrual period, she washes her vagina thoroughly, just like washing a fan in the kitchen. After the douching, she felt very clean. However, soon after, she developed a vaginal infection.
  
  The so-called vaginal lavage is to inject water or other liquid into female Inside the vagina to achieve a cleansing effect. This cleaning method has been discussed in literature as early as the fifteenth century. Until now, many people consider this a must-have for classic hygiene.
  
  In fact, this idea is incorrect and may even be harmful to others.
  
  Modern medicine tells us that the vagina itself has a natural cleaning effect, and it will not "suspend business" during menstruation. There are mucous membranes on the surface of the vagina such as the mouth and nose, and vaginal secretions are naturally produced, which not only has a cleaning effect, but also can wash away the "dirty things" on the vaginal surface to the outside of the vagina. Only after the dirt flows out of the vagina with secretions can it be cleaned carefully. This is hygienic and gets twice the result with half the effort.
  
  Moreover, douching itself will interfere with the vagina's ability to resist pathogenic microorganisms and easily cause infection. ; And it will affect the doctor’s diagnosis of vagina disease , so when doing a bone cavity examination, don’t be smart enough to irrigate the vagina to show it is clean. What's more, some studies have pointed out that lavage will increase the risk of pelvic infection.
  
  Therefore, during menstruation (or even at ordinary times), as long as you clean the vaginal secretions properly, you have taken sufficient hygiene measures and can "sit back and relax".
