Hydrogen peroxide rinse?

Question

I read online to get rid of odour down there to dilute hydrogen peroxide and rinse yourself out with it. I tried it and have doing it about a year. Anyone else try this? Or do it?

Accepted Answer

That sounds like a very bad idea!

If you are having odor problems, talk to a doctor. You may have an infection that needs to be treated.

Answer

Don't do that!!!

Answer

You should never use anything other than water down there. The vagina is self cleaning. If there's an odor you need to go see a doctor.

Answer

Hydrogen peroxide is fine to use because it is made naturally in your body. But if you're having odor I would go get check for BV (bacterial vaginosis) it's when your natural ph is out of whack

Answer

Why did this make me laugh?

Answer

NOOO! There is bacteria in you that is good. Don't want to kill all bactiera. In all honesty I have been told just rinsing with warm water in the shower is best. Maybe unsented soap or a vaginal wash if want something more than water. Like someone else said, the vagina is self cleaning. Change underwear often, and wear breathable fabric under wear like cotton.

Answer

It says right on the bottle that it's for external use only. If you have concerns, call your doctor.

Answer
