Thanks ladies. Good to know. I just cleared up a yeast infection, tmi sorry, and got some feminine soap but heard that it will cause an infection. I've used fragrant soaps before and never had any problems this was my first and I don't want to experience it again. Lol

Your body is naturally cleansing itself down there. I pretty much only use water anymore because I used to get infections and would try to clean it with soaps that are specifically for that area... And then it would only get worse. since I stopped using soap down there, I have actually noticed  little to no smell, and I have not had any more infections!

Not typically but it can contribute to a change in the pH of your intimate parts.
