But excessive cleanliness has the opposite effect. We destroy our acid mantle and allow bacteria to penetrate.
No deodorant, no matter how good, can cover up your body's individual odor in the long term. And that's a good thing. Because our intimate odor unconsciously attracts potential partners. People who smell good are also a good match.
Less is more – especially when it comes to intimate hygiene
The healthy vaginal flora forms a reliable protection against the penetration of bacteria and should therefore not be disturbed with aggressive soaps and lotions.
Washing too often destroys and removes the good bacteria as well as the bad ones, and the vagina can no longer protect itself. This encourages the growth of fungi and dangerous pathogens that can cause serious infections.
How do I keep my vagina clean – especially during menstruation
Daily cleaning of the external genitals with warm water is sufficient. If you do not feel clean enough, you can also use pH-neutral soaps without additional fragrances.
Since the vaginal environment is naturally rather moist, the intimate area should be kept dry and breathable and plastic-free underwear should be worn.
The use of additional products should be avoided especially during menstruation, because at this time the body is even more susceptible to viruses and bacteria.
