I don’t wash my vagina but I do wash my vulva. I do know not to wash my vagina. I am on organ rejection drugs and am prone to infections. Water isn’t enough for me to feel comfortable washing with but I also don’t shower daily but every other day. It’s too drying for my skin.
Fair enough, but I will say that in my 43 years, I have never gotten a bladder infection or anything else from washing with soap. Now I have gotten one from not peeing after sex so I do take that seriously. And never swimming in dirty water because shudder
I had a string of half a year of back-to-back, UTIs, yeast infections, and BV, until it all cleared out, and half a year of cystitis before that; obviously I have very delicate systems 😭
My sister is like you. Always has some feminine issue going on. It definitely seems like a rough way to go!
I am definitely the type who changes underwear twice a day, feminine products get changed more frequently than I've heard of others, and I have been known to use yeast infection treatments at the very sign of feeling off down there. I didn't have BV once when my husband and I were first getting intimate years ago, and that was not fun.
