Doctors Are Calling Out The Harmful “Wellness Trends” You Should Stop Following ASAP

“I’m a family medicine doctor, and I see this more times than I can count: If you douche or clean your vagina with scented anything, you’re getting an infection. I’m gonna hold y’all’s hand when I say this…the vagina is a self-cleaning organ, and it is not supposed to smell like roses! Clean that thing with warm water and unscented soap!”

“All those scented products and douching can tip off the pH of the vagina and give you an infection. Now, if you’re having vaginal odor, itching, pain, or discharge, go to your doctor to be tested for an infection before trying to treat yourself and giving yourself one.”
