Is your private part healthy? Four tips to find out

How do you judge vaginal health? What does it mean for private parts to be healthy? Below, the editor will introduce 4 tips to teach you how to understand the health of women's private parts.

1. Appearance

Normally, the vagina and vulva often have a small amount of secretions to maintain a moderate level of moisture, which is leucorrhea; it is composed of vaginal mucosal exudate, secretions from cervical glands and endometrium, and contains vaginal epithelial exfoliated cells. Normal leucorrhea is mostly transparent in color, egg blue in shape, clean and in moderate quantity.

Traditional Chinese medicine believes that people with spleen deficiency have white or light yellowish leucorrhea, people with kidney deficiency have clear and cold leucorrhea, people with damp heat have yellow and thick leucorrhea, and people with dampness and toxins have yellow-green leucorrhea like pus. Western medicine says that if vaginal discharge increases and becomes thin and foamy, accompanied by vulvar itching, beware of Trichomonas vaginitis; if leucorrhea becomes like tofu dregs, and there is urinary pain or even sexual intercourse pain, beware of Candida vaginitis!

suggestion:

1. Don't forget to protect yourself during the sweet moments of love. Using condoms is a way to show your responsibility to your love for each other.

2. Pay special attention to protection in swimming pools, bathing centers, public toilets and other places to avoid accidentally contracting diseases.

3. Use boiling water to wash underwear. When the vulva and vagina maintain an alkaline Ph value, it will be unfavorable for the growth of Candida alba.

2. Smell

The unknown vagina is always overlooked because it is odorless and tasteless and never shows off. Even during the days when the leucorrhea secretion is relatively large during the menstrual cycle, when the secretion changes from thin to thick, a healthy vagina remains fresh and will never produce any disgusting or embarrassing smell.

In traditional Chinese medicine, leucorrhea with a slightly fishy smell is associated with kidney deficiency and coldness, while leucorrhea with a yellow, thick smell and a foul taste is mostly caused by dampness and toxins. From a Western perspective, if a woman's menstruation changes, she has frequent urination, urine retention, and increased leucorrhea, she should be aware of the possibility of uterine fibroids. Once mixed with bacterial infection, the secretions will become purulent and smell bad.

suggestion:

1. The incidence of uterine fibroids in women over 30 years old reaches 20%, so it is best to have a gynecological examination at least once a year.

2. Avoid abusing hormone drugs and foods containing hormones. Excessive estrogen levels will cause uterine fibroids to thrive.

3. Not all uterine fibroids require surgery, but the disease requires follow-up visits every 3 to 6 months for dynamic monitoring.

3. Humidity

A healthy vagina, influenced by both estrogen and progesterone, will produce "love fluid" during moments of passionate sexual excitement. These lubricating fluids mainly come from secretions from the cervix and Bartholin's glands, as well as exudates from congestion of the vaginal wall. They play an important role in maintaining vaginal moisture and harmonious sex.

Excessive cleanliness, vitamin deficiency, tension and fatigue...many factors may lead to vaginal dryness. A dry vagina not only makes you uncomfortable, causes burning sensation during intimacy, and even causes pain during intercourse, but also affects his sexual pleasure, causing both parties to lose interest in sex over time.

suggestion:

1. Relax and try to increase the time of foreplay, so that romance and considerate tenderness can "moisturize" your love.

2. Deficiency of B vitamins, especially vitamin B2, can cause dryness and desquamation. Eating more cereals and coarse grains will be of great benefit.

3. The normal vagina has a self-cleaning function, so there is no need to use detergents to excessively clean the vulva to prevent dryness.

4. Firmness

The vaginal wall is composed of mucosa, muscle layer and fibrous layer, about 7 to 9 centimeters long, and is surrounded by many muscles and ligaments to maintain a certain inclination angle and appropriate tension. The wrinkles on the inner wall mucosa of the vagina further increase its firmness, which not only increases the pleasure during sex, but also shows the charm of youth.

After a natural birth or even a cesarean section, a woman's vagina may become loose due to birth trauma, fatigue, and other factors. In mild cases, it can be basically restored after a few months through proper health care. In severe cases, it will not only lead to a decline in the quality of sexual life, but also permanent vaginal relaxation and even urinary and bowel disorders!
