What are the effects of excessive cleaning of the body? Excessive cleaning of private areas poses great harm

Is excessive cleaning of private areas harmful? Many women clean their vagina every day, which can lead to vaginal flora disorders and trigger gynecological diseases. Therefore, excessive cleaning of private areas can affect health.

The vagina itself has self-cleaning functions, and many women do not know much about the vagina. Li Xiaomao, Director of Obstetrics and Gynecology at the Third Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat sen University, stated that the vaginal structure is very unique. The front of its opening is the urethral opening, and the back is the anus, which is prone to contamination. Among them, due to sexual contact, various microorganisms, including bacteria, viruses, and mycoplasma, can temporarily introduce various pathogens. Therefore, the vagina is a dangerous area. However, the vagina has self-cleaning function and can maintain ecological balance.

Although there are more than 20 types of resident vaginal microbiota, the vaginal microbiota has a certain combination structure, among which lactobacilli play a leading role in maintaining the stability of the vaginal microbiota environment, accounting for 85% -90% of the vaginal microbiota. This vaginal endophytic bacteria can maintain a pH value of 3 for p. Between 8 and 4.4, inhibit bacteria that survive in alkaline environments, making them unable to reproduce and killing miscellaneous bacteria that enter the vagina. Therefore, under normal circumstances, women only need to keep their external genitalia clean.

Frequent flushing damages ecological balance

Not paying attention to personal hygiene will definitely affect the vagina. However, women who are too clean sometimes have severe inflammation of the external genitalia, vagina, or pelvic cavity.

According to statistics, the incidence rate of vaginitis is twice as high as that of non cleaning due to the attention to the hygiene of vaginal cleaning. If cleaned more than once a month, the risk of trichomonas vaginitis significantly increases. Vaginal cleaning solution contains disinfectants such as iodine and Jieer, which kill pathogenic bacteria and lactobacilli. Li Xiaomao said, 'There is a typical example where a woman loves to clean her vagina very much. How many times does she clean her vagina every day, but does it itch?'?

Most pharmacies have three types of lotions that are effective for various types of vaginitis and cervicitis. The instructions on the packaging of the lotion are mostly for traditional Chinese medicine ingredients, such as snake bed, Baibu, Huangbai, etc., There are no contraindications or specific indications for the prevention of various vaginitis, vulvar itching, vulvar itching, and sexually transmitted diseases.

Experts say that when the vaginal microbiota is disrupted, Candida, Staphylococcus, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa toxins not only cause local inflammation in the vagina, but also cause redness, itching, and pain in the external genitalia. If you find yourself suffering from vaginitis, you should go to the hospital and have the doctor distinguish which pathogen is infected and treat it according to different situations, rather than buying a bottle of detergent from the pharmacy and hoping to wash it.
