The talk about vaginal health you never got

Just like any part of your body, your vagina needs to be cared for properly. With this in mind, let's explore the world of vaginal health with five ways to support your 'down there' care.

1. Get to know when things aren't right

When things are in tip-top shape, you'll know. So, when our standards - and pH balance - slip, harmful bacteria can run rampant, increasing our risk of infections. Common signs to look out for that your V needs some attention include:

• Irregular discharge

• A strong, fishy smell

• Pain, itching or burning

• Redness or swelling

2. Keep it clean

Vaginas are clever and self-clean, thanks to the bacterial balance that makes up the vaginal microbiome. All you need to keep it clean is warm water from regular showers, and no need for special scrubs, soaps, or perfume. In fact, it will thank you for not using these products anywhere near it, as they can disrupt the pH and lead to itches or infections.

3. Know what lube's in your tube

When getting handsy, check the ingredients of all lubricants or condoms and toss away any that contain the following ingredients that can throw off the vaginal pH:

• Glycerin Petroleum products

• Parabens

• Flavours

• Non-natural oils

4. Dress for success

Unfriendly yeasts love a warm, moist environment, and spending extended time in wet or sweaty clothing can create the perfect environment for yeasts to thrive. Additionally, if we already have thrush, we must ensure our underwear is washed in hot water or with antibacterial soap to kill the bugs and not reintroduce them.

5. Probiotic care for down there

When you think about all our vaginas do for us, they're pretty magical and very low maintenance. If we can give them a helping hand, we're all for it. By taking a daily probiotic, you can say goodbye to itches and niggles, and hello to a top-tier, balanced and healthy vaginal microbiome and pH. That's why Eve made V Good Probiotics, to support yeast imbalances and keep the vaginal microbiome in tip-top shape.
