Beaman 1. Lotion destroys the microecological environment and causes pelvic infection
The vaginal microbial flora mainly inhabits the mucous membranes and folds of the vaginal side walls. It is currently recognized that the most important member of the normal vaginal flora is Lactobacillus. Its main function is to protect the vagina from foreign bacteria and is an important part of the vagina.“ healthy "Guardian", so in medicine, the number of lactobacilli in vaginal secretions is often used to determine the cleanliness of the vagina and judge the quality of the vaginal self-cleaning function. Some scholars investigated 40 healthy women of childbearing age and found that 92.5% had lactobacilli, while only 60% of menopausal women had lactobacilli. If you rinse your vagina regularly with vaginal cleansing solutions, there will be fewer lactobacilli.
Recently, foreign scholars analyzed reports on women's vaginal douching over the past 30 years and found that those who douche once a week or more can significantly increase the chance of pelvic infection, with a moderate increase. Ectopic pregnancy The more frequently you flush, the greater the risk of pelvic infection. According to the "American Journal of Public Health", women who use vaginal douches have a 73% higher risk of pelvic infection than women who do not use vaginal douches. This is because the douching liquid destroys the self-cleaning function of the vagina, causing pathogenic bacteria to take advantage of the weakness and travel up the cervix to Uterus and fallopian tubes, causing pelvic infection.
2. Vaginal lavage reduces fertility rate
American scholars observed 848 married women and found that women who used vaginal douching to rinse their vaginas had a 30% decrease in expected pregnancy per month, and the decrease was more obvious among younger women than among older women. The reason may be that the pH and microecological environment of the vagina change, causing pathogenic bacteria to multiply and grow, leading to some kind of disease occurrence, ultimately leading to infertility.
Since the normal flora of the vagina has a "self-cleaning function", under normal circumstances, there is no need to rinse the vagina with douching fluid. For patients suffering from various diseases, it is necessary to use therapeutic rinses under the guidance of a doctor for therapeutic purposes, but they must not be used for a long time.
3. Caused by improper cleaning methods Vaginitis
women and children health sector survey, city female Genital inflammation has been increasing year by year in recent years, especially among young women, trichomonal vaginitis, fungal vaginitis and chronic Cervicitis The incidence rate is extremely high and it has become the three main reproductive system infections among women. One of the causes of these three diseases is improper cleaning of the vagina.
Some women, whose reproductive systems are originally healthy, frequently use traditional Chinese medicine external lotion, potassium permanganate solution and other disinfectants to wash their vagina and vulva, hoping to prevent the occurrence of gynecological diseases. In fact, this approach may have adverse consequences. This is because the vagina has a "self-cleaning" effect and can protect women's reproductive system to a certain extent. If you use disinfectant to rinse the vagina without any indication, it may destroy the vaginal defense function. In addition, frequent use of traditional Chinese medicine lotions and potassium permanganate to wash the vulva can also reduce the disease resistance of the vulvar skin. Regular use of potassium permanganate can also reduce skin oil and cause excessive dryness of the skin, causing Itching of the vulva disease.
Women should use the following methods to keep their vagina clean:
First, you can choose professional detoxification products to clean the inner vagina. This is very common in the foreign gynecological market, and many people in China are now using it. Medical science has proven that eliminating the accumulated toxins in the inner vagina is a very effective maintenance method for the inner vagina. It not only removes bacteria attached to the surface of the inner vagina, but also removes toxins accumulated in the cells of the inner vagina. After the toxins are discharged, the metabolic rate in the cells will be significantly increased, aging cells can be activated, and the rate of cell division, repair, and regeneration will increase rapidly. When the cells are healthy, the reproductive system will naturally be healthy.
Second, under normal circumstances, women should try to rinse the vulva with only clean water, but should avoid pouring clean water into the vagina. The frequency of cleaning is once a day. When cleaning, it is best to shower with warm water. If there is no shower condition, you can wash in a basin, but it must be dedicated to the basin.
Third, because hands are one of the main media for the spread of germs, you should wash your hands first before cleaning the vagina, then wash the vulva from front to back with your hands, then wash the labia majora and minora, and finally wash the anus and surrounding areas.
Fourth, do not use acidic or alkaline lotions and care solutions with strong bactericidal effects. These products will not only kill harmful bacteria, but also kill beneficial bacteria such as lactobacilli, and change the acid-base balance of the inner vaginal environment! It destroys the self-cleaning system of the vulva and cervix, reduces the body's own immunity, and makes it more likely to cause gynecological inflammation.
4. How to choose vaginal cleansing products
Be sure to go to regular pharmacies to buy brands produced by regular and qualified manufacturers that have been identified by relevant national agencies to avoid harm to the body caused by counterfeit and inferior products.
If pregnant women experience abnormal leucorrhea, vaginal itching and other symptoms during pregnancy, they should not buy vaginal cleansing lotion without the guidance of a doctor, as it may affect the development of the fetus.
Women who may suffer from vaginitis should go to the hospital to ask a doctor for a diagnosis before purchasing so that targeted treatment can be taken.
