Is there any harm in brushing your teeth during the postpartum period?

Patient's question:

I have an itchy lower body, and my underwear is always yellow. What's going on? Is it harmful to brush your teeth during the postpartum period?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, there is no problem brushing your teeth during your menstrual period. Brushing teeth is a normal hygiene habit and has nothing to do with your period. Pay attention to keeping warm and maintaining hygiene during your period, and avoid cold and raw foods. The occurrence of gynecological diseases not only affects the patient's body but can also lead to the development of gynecological conditions. Therefore, it is best to have an ultrasound examination in the gynecology department of the hospital to identify the cause and receive targeted treatment. Also, pay attention to personal hygiene and keep the vaginal area clean.
