How safe is vagisil daily feminine wash for women compared to douche?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Probably not: The vagina is self=cleaning and there is very little need for regular douching. Plain water is adequate for washing the vagina. Many studies show that douching regularly causes more problems like bacterial vaginosis, fungal vaginitis, and contact dermatitis.
