6 Things those are bad for vagina

Are there any bad things about your vagina? Of course, it is weird to ask this, but again vagina is part of our bodies and it should not be left behind. Most of us are conversant about their other parts of the body forgetting this very crucial part that has made all of us exist. Most of us just associate having many sexual partners with a bad thing for their vagina and even masturbation. They do not know that there are others which are most dangerous. Here are the bad things you didn’t know for your vagina.

1. Working out

A healthy life always must be accompanied by exercise. Exercises’ are almost the key factor to a better life. This is because it helps in your blood circulation, muscle strengthening and maintaining good moods. Vigorous exercises always lead to sweating. Automatically your vagina will also sweat and viscous discharge will be witnessed. After exercise makes sure you change into dry clothes as fast as possible because this discharge contains fungal and bacteria which is dangerous to your private parts. This should not make you worry because the more the discharge the more healthily you are, so keep on exercising. Remember always to shower or change into dry clothes after exercise.

2. Constipation.

Your vagina and rectum share close boundaries. They actually share a wall, so technically they are like neighbours. Continuous constipation and force may damage the muscles of the wall between the vagina and rectum, creating a situation of a vaginal hernia called a rectocele. This may cause pressure on the pelvic muscles, you may experience pain while intercourse, and this can make the bowel movements uncomfortable. It is advised to increase the intake of water, vegetables and fibre. If the issue still persists you need to meet a doctor to take medical help.

3. Obesity

Obesity has many disadvantages in as far as health is concerned. In this case it creates pressure on the pelvic muscles, bladder and vagina. This can lead to conditions like Female Urinary Stress Incontinence where leakage of urine occurs while coughing, sneezing or laughing. Hence it is advised that a woman maintains her Body Mass Index (BMI) well within 40 which will help her to overcome these issues and also reduce the risk of becoming infertile, or having complications while pregnancy.

4. Overenthusiastic cleanliness.

Hygiene is one of the most important things when it comes to women, but you need to be rational with it. Overenthusiastic cleanliness may not be a good idea when it comes to vagina. The outer layer needs to be cleaned with mild soap, but when it comes to the internal part nature takes care of it. The vagina releases lubricant that lubricates it and detects any foreign material. So you are not supposed to use any essential oils or scented tampons. This may interrupt the ecosystem of the vagina and may give rise to infections.

5. Diabetes is one of the things that is bad for your vagina. But how often is this mentioned?

I hope it is not your first time that you have heard. This is witnessed by the multiple yeast infections around the vagina. This is due to high level of sugar in the blood which creates the conducive environment for yeast. If you don’t control your diabetes well , yeast will work on your private and essential parts.

6. How is smoking related to vagina malfunctioning?

 Of course, you may be wondering, but this is how it is. Cigarette smoking is not only a risk for throat cancer but also it can lead to cervical cancer. Women who are smokers are at high risk of getting cervical cancer.

Taking care of your reproductive organ is the utmost important thing for an individual, we at Shrikhande IVF and Surrogacy centre believe in spreading awareness regarding this and provide appropriate treatment whenever required.
