Patient's question:
These days, I've been feeling very agitated because for some reason, my lower abdomen has been itchy, with a lot of leukorrhea and a bad odor. It's gotten to the point where I don't dare stand in crowded places. I went for a gynecological examination, and the doctor said I had gynecological inflammation.Doctor's answer:
If you wash the anus first and then the vulva, it may introduce bacteria from the anus into the vagina. Or during menstruation, using a bathtub can also allow bacteria to ascend and invade the internal reproductive organs. Some people mistakenly believe that washing the vulva with plain water is the safest option, even using hot water to soothe irritation after itching. They claim that the washing feels very comfortable. In fact, the vulva, like the mouth, is susceptible to bacterial invasion. Saliva and vaginal secretions, like the mouth, have self-cleaning functions. The mouth is not necessarily dirtier than the vagina, but we still brush our teeth in the morning and evening. Similarly, the private area also requires daily care. Using a female care liquid with a Ph4 mild acidic formula is more suitable, as it can maintain the self-cleaning function of the female private area.
