Pretty much every sexual health website will tell you to use water and only water to wash your intimate areas. The vagina pretty much cleans itself (hence why you get discharge in the first place). Most people get infections or irritations from using creams, perfumes or soaps on that area which is unnecessary and more likely to cause infection on the first place. I would refrain from scrubbing or using soap in that area at least until the irritation has subsided or just never again. Look it up if you don't believe me.
You can use soap to wash yourself. I'd feel dirty if I didnt, but I used an all natural, organic, moisturizing soap bar. The only time I get a "burning" is if I cut myself shaving or don't apply enough soap to shave with. I'd do what the other ladies say, reinsert yourself and give it a day to see how it feels. If it burns on the inside you might have just scrubbed too hard.
You should never ever use soap to wash your genitals. The vagina is very sensitive and washing it with soap, any soap can cause a ph imbalance which can cause a number of infections. It's particularly important when your pregnant as you're extra sensitive and more likely to contract a UTI. Only ever use clean water to wash that area.
Yeap probably what happened. See? Nothing to worry about lol also u shoukd try a disinfectant soap like Dial bar soap down there. Thats what I use. Irish spring is strong and can cause issues like what you were experiencing.
I have to use non snented down there now. Bc it burns every time I wash it. When I use non scented it helps alot
So the burning is gone...I still see like a little blood but it's seems like I might have scratched myself while washing...sorry TMI maybe my bf cause we were gonna have sex n he fingered me a little but I might have been dry from the shower n the soap
Yes it burned but a less so I drank two more cups of water n maybe I'll pee it all out -_-
I rinsed the best I could but before I did I wiped with toilet paper n the blood looks like I have a scratch... n also it feels so swollen down there...smh I'm such an idiot -_-
Lmao I will never so that **** again! Thanks I'm gonna rinse I'll be back lol OMG!
Sometimes when you scrub down there it can cause iritation and if you have any dry skin down there it can tear open a little bit and burn/ bleed a bit. Normal. If you notice blood in the next day or two consult your doctor just in case you might have an infection down there. A lot of time in pregnancy woman will develop a bladder infection as well (out of nowhere totally not your fault) and that can also cause a burning sensation. Just wait n see how you feel tomorrow :) you'll be fine.
OK I'm gonna do that...cause I feel fine no irritation down there at all...let me rinse...can I put some water in there a little... cause information I went in there good when I was washing with slot of soap cause me n my bf where gonna have sex but we argued n then didn't lol then I went to pee n OMG!
Go rinse up and pee in a little while nd see how u feel.. u probably stil have soap or scraped urself...if the burning while you pee is coming from within -might be a UTI....idk what is with the post repeating that u gave urself a yeast infection!
No I'm not itching or feeling anything I just washed n was OK ...but as soon as I peed it burned... I peed only once so far but it burned so bad I wanted to cry
