The vagina is not only a female sexual organ but also a pathway for menstruation and childbirth. Due to its direct contact with external substances, the risk of developing diseases is high, with vaginal infections being the most common. Women of all ages should take care of their vagina by following these 6 good habits:

1. Clean the genital area with water: The vagina naturally maintains a slightly acidic environment to prevent bacterial invasion and promote the growth of beneficial bacteria. Using commercial cleaning products can disrupt the vaginal flora and harm the delicate skin, leading to infections. Therefore, cleaning with plain water is sufficient, without douching.

2. Wipe from front to back after urination and bowel movements: The close proximity of the anus, urethra, and vagina can potentially lead to vaginal or urinary tract infections if proper hygiene is not maintained.

Therefore, it is important to wipe from front to back to prevent the transfer of bacteria from the anal area.

3. Wear cotton underwear: Cotton underwear helps maintain vaginal health. Compared to other materials, cotton panties are breathable and have some absorption capabilities, reducing the risk of gynecological diseases.
