Can the vagina be washed with medicine after delivery?

Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

After delivery, it is important to maintain greater cleanliness and hygiene in the external genital area, and change menstrual pads and toilet paper frequently. Sexual activity should be avoided for one month to prevent infections of the reproductive organs. If there is fever, abdominal pain, or abnormal odor in vaginal discharge, it may be caused by an infection, and medical attention should be sought promptly.
