A member asked:
I used douche for the first time and it burned really badly, is something going on with my vagina or is it because douche is bad?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Douching is bad.: The vagina has many organisms that colonize or live there. The balance of the types of organisms is very important for the health of the vagina. In general, douching is not recommended, because this delicate balance is destroyed. Therefore, we don't recommend douching.
