Female Privates Hygiene – How to avoid toilet infections

February 8, 2020 by Fit Admin 0

To maintain a healthy private you must know what to do to avoid infection and it is equally important to educate your sexual partner on some of them to also help you.

Here are some few things you can do or avoid.


1. FINGERING

During foreplay or romance, as part of it some people insert their finger or fingers into the privates.

Some people do not even keep their nails clean so it gathers a lot of germs and during the fingering, these germs are deposited…leading to infection.
Same thing apply to autopleasure acts or masturbation.

2. BACKDOOR INTERCOURSE

It is unhealthy to have anal sex and continue having penovaginal sex. If this is done, the male will pick bacteria from the anus and deliver them to the privates even if you are using a condom….which will lead to infection.


  1. QUEST TO MAKE THE PRIVATES TIGHT:

Some guys complain about the privates of their partners.
They complain that it is too loose and they no more feel any sensation during intercourse.
Some ladies are therefore pushed to find a quick solution and in the process some use herbs or other substances with the hope of making the privates tight.
Some of the substances cause infection or sepsis.


  1. DOUCHING BABY GIRLS

Some parents, when bathing for their baby girls put warm water in a milk tin or dip a towel in the warm water and pour the water through a hole made beneath the tin or squeeze the water out of the towel into the privates of the baby.

This is sooooo WRONG as it can damage the hymen.

Some parents also insert ginger or pepper or both into the privates of adolescents as a form of punishment.
This is sooooo WRONG as it can lead to infection.

Some people are used to bathing by adding Dettol or other detergents to the water and they put this solution inside the privates with the help of sponge or towel.
This is soooo WRONG as it will change the normal flora, leading to infection.


5. USE OF WATER CLOSET



Some people have the habit of not sitting on the seat of the WC when using it so they end up urinating on the seat.
The possibility of picking infection when using it in that condition is high.
Don’t let your underwear be at the thigh level when using the WC especially the public ones – as the inner of the underwear may rub the surface of the WC – and pick infections.

Where the water is not running and people have used but have not flushed and you don’t have any choice but to also use it, use enough toilet roll to cover before using the WC to avoid any splashes on the vulva.


6. WASHING AND DRYING

Develop the habit of disinfecting your underwear frequently.

Keep exclusive underwear during your period and don’t mix those with your regular ones.
Ensure they are made of cotton and are dried in the sun or well ironed to kill germs.

7. CHANGE OF SANITARY PADS

Some people try to economize the use of their sanitary pads because there is little or no blood.
This is soooo WRONG as it can lead to infection.

NB: If there is any bad scent from the private or there is a discharge, then it might be an infection which you have to have it treated.
