A member asked:

Can a woman douche after internal radiation for cancer?

Dr. PAUL EUN answered

Not usually needed: Douching is generally not recommended for most women because it can upset the normal bacterial environment in the vagina that can actually cause infection. You will have to be extra careful after radiation because the tissue is more fragile.
