keeping your vagina healthy and sweet

As a woman, keeping your vagina healthy
and sweet is important your sexual organs
are very valuable and must be well cared for.
The human race has always found
expression of affection in sex and romantic
interaction. Undoubtedly, sex and love are
very important to our general wellbeing, as a
man or as a woman. This by implication
means our sex organs are very valuable and
must be well cared for. So, as a woman,
keeping your vagina healthy and sweet is
important.
Here are 7 simple tips to help you do just
that:
1. Wash your vagina as often as possible.
Vaginal odour is one of the worst problems a
woman can face. To prevent this, wash at
least twice a day with a gentle, unscented
soap. Make sure you wash the pubic hair
around the vagina. They usually retain sweat
and dirt which in turn can create foul odour.
2. Give your vagina a regular haircut or
shave. Some people crave a hairy vagina,
but keeping too much vaginal hair is not so
wise. Truth is, the shorter the vaginal hair,
the lower the chances of odour and
infections. Women who have the time to
constantly clean up may not have a problem
with this. This is not always so if your
hygiene standards are high. But shorter is
cleaner and better.
3. Let our vagina breathe with the right
lingerie. Use the right lingerie which will allow
air around your vagina because, leaving the
area damp leaves you open to a bacterial
invasion. Cotton underwear is preferably to
nylon and other airless fabric.
4. Get medical help once you notice an
infection. It is not wise to watch a vaginal
infection develop. Once you notice an itch,
strange colouration of vaginal (menstrual)
emissions, strange feelings or noticeable
signs of infections — say foul odour, rashes
or boils, head to the hospital. The danger of
leaving infections untreated goes beyond
odours. Your fertility as woman is also at
risk.
5. Change your underwear regularly. A
woman should never wear an underwear item
for more than a day. Vaginal secretions
make it totally unhealthy, damp and a ready
ground for bacteria to multiply. This is even
more important during menstruation.
6. No perfumes around the vagina. If you
have odour around the vagina, spraying
perfume will not help you. Perfume will make
matters worse by causing a PH imbalance
which is not good. So the best option is to
up your hygiene.
7. Make your vagina taste sweet with good
food. It has been proven that what you eat
affects the taste of your vaginal juices. So
eat the right kind of fruits, especially those
high in natural sugar— oranges, apples,
mangoes etc. They have a positive effect on
vaginal taste, same as with yoghurt and
honey. On the other hand, avoid fruits and
vegetables that give bad breath — like
onions, garlic. They have an equally negative
effect on vaginal taste, just like alcohol,
coffee and spicy food.
A BONUS TIP is to use baby wipes instead
of the usual tissue paper after a visit to the
toilet.
