Analysis: "Raw water" refers to boiled cold water, which contains many pathogens, including sexually transmitted diseases, such as human papillomavirus, which can cause condyloma acuminatum. Even if tap water is repeatedly filtered and disinfected, it is difficult to eliminate these viruses. If such "raw water" is used to clean the vulva, the virus in the water may attach to the vulva or labia majora, or even enter the vagina, where it grows and breeds and causes disease. According to clinical analysis, many patients with condyloma acuminatum have one thing in common, that is, cleaning perineum with "raw water".
Tip: To clean vulva, it is best to use clean warm water, neither too cold nor too hot. It should be noted that the vagina itself has a self-purification mechanism, and the acidic environment formed by glycogen secreted by it can inhibit the growth of pathogens, so don't wash it with soap. In addition, underwear should be changed frequently, especially underwear and menstrual products contaminated by secretions.
Solve the problem: Q: Is it better to wash the vulva more often?
Answer: There is fecal fluid in the pudendal mucosa, which needs to be cleaned frequently. However, the more washing, the better. Excessive cleaning will destroy the protective film on the mucosal surface, making the mucosa dry, uncomfortable and even itchy. Too frequent vaginal perfusion can easily lead to the change of normal PH value and flora imbalance. Therefore, women who love cleaning should pay attention to the frequency of cleaning and reduce the chance of getting sick.
