Due to the physiological characteristics of the vagina and urethra, women need to scrub their lower body daily. After marriage, it is even more important to pay attention to the hygiene of the external genitalia, otherwise it may produce unpleasant odors. The dirt on the vulva is also a hotbed of pathogens, which are easy to invade the urinary tract and urethra, causing infection of the Urinary system or inflammation of internal reproductive organs, such as vagina, uterus, ovary and fallopian tube. Therefore, women should pay special attention to the cleanliness and hygiene of their sexual organs. The following points should be achieved:

The urethral orifice and Vaginal orifice should be cleaned first, then the outer side of the Labia majora, the pubic mound, the inner side of the thigh root, and finally the anus. The skin and mucous membranes of the external genitalia are relatively soft and prone to damage. When cleaning, the movements should be gentle and careful. Generally, it is not necessary to clean the vagina because there is a natural non pathogenic vaginal bacterium growing inside the vagina, which can maintain an acidic environment inside the vagina and make it difficult for bacteria to grow. In addition, a dedicated basin and towel should be used to clear the external genitalia. Moreover, soap should not be used to clean the external genitalia, nor should alkaline washing products be used. The acidic secretions in the female vagina have a self-cleaning effect, with a pH value between 4 and 5. Using alkaline products can damage the vagina's self-protection barrier, allowing external bacteria, especially certain viruses, to thrive. Therefore, special lotion with PH value equal to vaginal environment should be used to clean the vulva.
2. Pants should not be too tight. A tight crotch is not conducive to the release of sweat and air circulation in the perineum, resulting in diseases such as dermatitis and eczema. Furthermore, if the underwear is too tight, it can cause frequent friction between the underwear and the external genitalia and anus, which can easily cause pathogens from the anus to enter the urethra and vagina, causing corresponding infections.

As a result, colonies of bacteria, viruses, exfoliated cells, and dirt were formed. Men's hygiene should achieve the following points:
1. Keep underwear clean and hygienic. Not only should underwear be changed and washed frequently, but it should also be exposed to sunlight.
