Vaginal health is not very often discussed or talked about, but it is a very important aspect for women’s health. Itching, abnormal discharge, irritation, and yeast infection, even boils and pimples, these are all very common problems. All these are few issues that develop in vaginal area.
Vaginal issues can cause irritation, discomfort, low self-esteem in life, and they are going to interfere with daily activities. So today, we will discuss how to keep the vaginal area healthy. First and foremost is prevention. If you take steps to keep the vaginal area clean and healthy and dry, you can avoid the occurrence of lots of these problems.
Soak in warm water
Vaginal boils are another very common problem occurring in that area. And oil glands and blocked air follicles can cause pus-filled lumps to form outside the vaginal area. So what could be the remedy? Do this regularly. Soak yourself in a bath tub or fill a tub with warm water and sit in that tub for some time. Warm water will clean the area thoroughly. It helps you to compress the boils.
Include yogurt in your diet
Probiotics can help to prevent infections like bacterial vaginosis. Yogurt is a natural source of probiotics. That helps introducing healthy bacteria in your body. So have a bowl of dahi yogurt every day in your meal. Now this yogurt can be taken in a liquid form. Make a very thin buttermilk and drink glass full of buttermilk 3-4 times in a day when you have some problem. Otherwise, once in the afternoon at the time of lunch, a glass of buttermilk is enough. You can also apply yogurt in the vaginal area. Basically when there is an infection of yeast in that area.

Change pads after regular interval
It is very important to change pads regularly. That area should always remain dry. Wetness in that area is going to cause infection, is going to cause boils and pimples too. Wearing the pads for a very long duration is going to irritate the skin, bring skin rashes and make skin sensitive for other infections. Along with curd, there is another thing which is cranberry. Very important. Make it as a routine to eat every day when you are going through some trouble. When there is pus cell when you pass urine, that also helps in removing that. Cranberry is another very effective food which you should include in your regular diet.
Wear comfortable clothing and your inner garment
Choose breathable fabrics, ideally cotton. Synthetic fibers such as nylon and other synthetic materials prevent the area from breathing. They trap heat and moisture and preventing that area from breathing freely. That creates a breathing ground for yeast infection. So cotton is more breathable and absorbent, which makes it ideal for preventing yeast infection.
Nowadays ladies, girls wearing such a tight clothing for a longer duration is going to cause problem. See, wearing tight clothes is not a problem. Only you should see that you switch between tight and loose and comfortable clothing alternatively and that would keep you healthy. Or you can wear tight clothes outside but when you come back home in the house, wear loose and comfortable clothes.
At night also when you sleep, your clothes should be really comfortable and see to it that the air passage is clear. Your groin area after all breathes and you should help to breathe. You should know that, that the skin at the groin area is breathing and so wear loose comfortable clothes.
Whenever you are wet, change your wet clothes immediately
Wet and sweaty clothes can cause excessive moisture and that can lead to infection. I would simply suggest, during rainy season better carry some spare clothing with you which are dry, which you could change immediately. If you get wet by travelling, change the clothes after you reach your destination immediately. Even after workout, since you have sweated a lot, don’t continue remaining wet. Change your clothes immediately after taking a shower.
Avoid scented productsThere are many scented products available in the market which claim to balance the vaginal pH. They claim that they would make the area smell fresh and clean. But understand, these products will worsen the skin problems and aggravate the bacterial infection. Instead, clean the area with warm water and mild soap while bathing. If there is an infection in that area, then person should clean that area with warm water at least thrice in a day.
Yoga AsanasNow I will share some yoga asanas which are very effective to give a health to the vaginal area. I would suggest three very effective asanas. First, Viprit Karni. Second, Bhadrasana. And third, Setu Bandh Asana. These asanas will improve blood circulation in that area and keep the muscles flexible.
