I have been eating quite a few onions lately and noticed that many "girly area" smells like ONION!!!! I am going to ******, but I want to know if using apple cider vineger diluted is okay?
Doctors recommend that you not do it because it can disrupt the natural balance of the vagina and the vagina cleans itself very well. It's OK to clean down there with mild soap, but douching is discouraged by health care professionals.
I douche every once in a while, mostly with plain water but sometimes a very dilute vinegar/water mixture. Sometimes I catch heat on here about it because they do say it disrupts your normal pH, but honestly, I've never ever had a problem.
You don't HAVE to, but if you want to and you're not using some harmful mixture, then go for it. If it doesn't work for you, then stop.
Hope this helps!
I douched once and it was the worst experience. Soon after I got the worst yeast infection ever. My ob/gyn does not recommend it since it throws off the natural balance that our body produces. You do not need to douche. If you are clean and shower, there is really no need for it. However, if you are going to do it, my doctor says only use the medicated kind. I'm sure you are fine and don't need to use it.
Good luck!!
