Must Read : Health Warning, See The Disdvantage Of Using Va Ginal Wash



Va ginal washes are the main cause of va ginal infection as they not only alter the pH balance but also create a favourable environment for the bacteria and fungus to grow, says experts.

Research made it known that the va gina has a pH level of about 3.5 to 4.5. Misguided information on how to clean your va gina could leave you anywhere between itchy genitals and infections.


When you use hygiene products like body or va ginal  wash, which experts says it contains a pH of about eight, can easily throw your pH balance out, leading to itchiness, irritation, and odour. Below are few risks of using va ginal wash:

Vaginal infection (bacterial vaginosis). It can upset the natural balance of bacteria in the va gina and the changes can make the environment more favourable for the growth of bacteria that cause infection.

It may also Increase the risk of pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) and also Increase the risk for developing cervical cancer. Irritation and risk of getting s3xually transmitted infection are not left out.

Spread of Infections. If you already have a va ginal infection, it is possible that using a feminine wash could make it to other areas in the canal.

Instead, water or unscented soaps are always better because they don’t have any fragrances that could be irritants. Just make sure to keep an eye out for constant itching, dryness, or a change in discharge.

Since the va gina produces mucus, which acts as a natural cleansing agent to wash away blood, semen, and va ginal discharge, any abnormal va ginal odour, discharge, or discomfort can signal the presence of an infection. If you have abnormal odour or discharge, pain, burning, or itching, it is important to see your doctor for diagnosis and treatment.
