Eat citrus fruits like pineapples, you can also clean yourself out with female hygiene products.
No no no no no. Do not clean yourself with anything but warm water. The vagina cleans itself. Please do not tell women how to clean themselves when you are a man.
“Feminine hygiene products” lead to a bacteria imbalance and cause LOTS of issues for me. I had to go to the doctor and take antibiotics.
Since then I’ve stopped using them and i’ve had no issues.
I started using them because a guy told me I had a strong smell. The doctor I went to told me that literally no, you should NEVER “clean out” your vagina. The most should be warm water and a mild unscented soap (like Dove - and only use it if you’re cleaning something up, like lubricant or period junk) ON JUST THE OUTSIDE.
Seriously do not tell people to use that shit. It’s terrible for a vagina.
DO NOT NOT NOT clean out your vagina. Even the PH balanced stuff is not good for your vagina.
Wear breathable panties all the time, such as cotton. If you really feel the need to wear silk, save it for only special occasions, do not make a regular thing of it.
If you can, sleep with at least your bottom half completely naked.
Don’t use oil based lubes, only use water based.
A healthy diet and exercise are key to superior vaginal functions.
Certain discharges are completely normal. (strong odors could be a sign of an infection, if you feel like you have a strong odor, go see your doctor please)
PH balanced products kill off all the bacteria, including the good bacteria inside your vagina. You don’t want to kill off all of the bacteria. It’s there for a reason. Killing it off will make you stink. Use a mild unscented soap on the outside of your vagina, aka your lips. (I use kissmyface brands olive oil bar)
The good bacteria is there to kill off the bad bacteria It produces bacteriocins to kill off intruding bacterias. It provides a wall along your vaginal canal to block off intruding bacterias, and prevents them from absorbing into your vaginal tissue.
Don’t use douches for that same reason ^ douches are horrible for your vaginal health.
Don’t use vaginal wipes or sprays for the same reason, again.^
If you think your vagina smells that bad, again, go see your doctor. Please, your vagina health is on the line.
My fav part about all of this is that corrections are coming from (mostly) sex workers. Like, we use this organ to pay our bills, we freaking know what we’re talking about. But OP won’t fix his post or admit he’s wrong. W.o.w.
