Health for All says
More and more girls are beginning to pay attention to the care of their intimate parts, however, there are some common misunderstandings about the intimate care of girls. Here, as an experienced veteran Chinese medicine practitioner, I will combine the theory of traditional Chinese medicine, quote ancient and modern famous prescriptions, and analyze the correct method of intimate care for girls over 12 years old.
First of all, let's make it clear that the intimate part of the female body is relatively fragile and sensitive, so special care is required when caring for it. However, many girls overwash their intimate parts and use soaps or detergents that contain irritating substances, which will disrupt the natural pH balance of intimate parts, resulting in uncomfortable symptoms such as itching, redness and swelling. Therefore, it is important to avoid harsh cleaning products in the first place and choose gentle, neutral cleaning agents.
Secondly, many girls do not pay attention to the moisturizing of intimate parts, resulting in easy dryness. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that wetness is one of the important signs of human health. For intimate areas, moisturizing is especially important. You can choose some Chinese herbal medicines for intimate care, such as the biochemical soup fumigation method. After grinding the herbs such as gypsum, angelica, and rehmannia root, add warm water and stir evenly, and then fumigate the intimate parts with bathtub steam to clean, moisturize, and drive away cold.
In addition, girls are particularly prone to dysmenorrhea and blood stasis during the physiological period. There are many experienced healing methods in TCM, such as the use of moxibustion and traditional Chinese medicine. Moxibustion can dredge the meridians, warm the meridians and dispel cold, and relieve dysmenorrhea. Choose a piece of dried moxa sticks, light it and fumigate the moxa smoke for about 15 minutes each time, and you can see the effect for 3-5 days in a row. For the problem of blood stasis, you can choose some traditional Chinese medicine to promote blood circulation and eliminate blood stasis, such as safflower, angelica, etc., boiled water as a tea, or external compresses.
Finally, pay attention to the hygiene of the intimate area. In addition to keeping it clean, it is not advisable to shave frequently, because shaving is easy to cause scratches and infection. Intimate hair should be trimmed appropriately and kept moderately fresh. In addition, choose good breathability**, and try to avoid wearing tight pants or synthetic fiber materials**, so as not to aggravate** the wet and breathable situation.
To sum up, the correct method of intimate care for girls should be: gentle cleansing, moisturizing care, moxibustion conditioning and reasonable tidying. It is important to focus on the health and comfort of the intimate area and avoid misunderstandings. It is hoped that girls will be able to take proper care of their intimate parts and maintain a healthy and enjoyable life based on the advice provided in this article.
