A member asked:
Is cetaphil antibacterial soap ok to use for personal intimate cleaning?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: If by "intimate" you're referring to your delicate parts, the answer is no, especially for the vagina and anal areas. Harsh soaps can cause drying, cracking and itching, and should be avoided. In fact, it's best to minimize the use of soap at all: just a little water is enough.
