3 ways you’re making your vagina upset!
Now, a bad state of vaginal health is not entirely your fault! For ages, women have been even embarrassed or scared to say the word vagina among people, let alone raise concerns about the trouble signs they’ve been experiencing with it. But it’s time to stop calling it the Va jay-jay, Hoo-ha, honeypot, or whatever it is that you have named it, and acknowledge that your vagina needs your care!
Taking care of your vagina is quite similar to relationships. You need to spend time nurturing and caring for it. Here are the three ways you’ve been destroying a healthy relationship with your vagina.
- Using hard soap and body washes to clean your vagina
They say your vagina is a self-cleaning oven, and it’s correct!
The Ph level of your vagina is slightly acidic, a perfect atmosphere to not let the infectious bacteria survive. Using hard soaps and detergents to keep your vagina is a ‘hard No’ as they might disrupt this natural shield your body has created.
Though cleaning your vagina isn’t necessary, cleaning your vulva (outer parts of your vagina) is essential. Clean your vulva daily using lukewarm water.
2.Using Scented sprays or douching to discard your vaginal odor
No vagina smells like a garden, and it shouldn’t too! Your vagina has an intrinsic odor and that’s okay!
When you use scented sprays to change this odor, they may affect your vagina’s Ph level. The use of lubricants that contain petroleum jelly and baby oils during sexual intercourse may create an infection too.
3.Keeping the sanitary napkin on for many hours without changing
Changing sanitary napkins and tampons every 5-6 hours is a great way to prevent infections. During your period, even if you skip a shower, wash the vaginal area thoroughly.
Be smart at caring for your vagina. Prevention is always better than cure. If your vaginal discharge has a tint of green or a change in odor, please consult with your doctor. Self-vaginal exams and periodic visits with a gynecologist are essential and must be periodical.

Zeenath Aman’s new look that makes internet go crazy
Zeenat Aman is very vocal with her Instagram followers. In her most recent post, the veteran actor, whose Instagram presence has managed to catch everyone’s attention, gave her take on fashion. The celebrity wrote in great depth about enjoying fashion and not limiting its associations to words like “sexy” and “glamour.” On her profile, one can see photos from her more recent adventures mixed in with nostalgic photos, all of which are accompanied by moving writing from the icon herself.
Aman has been called a retro fashion icon, but her Instagram shows that she hasn’t lost any of her style chops over the years. Aman’s style stands out amid a sea of fashion posts that are overflowing with trends but lacking in personality. The actor’s fashion choices and her tone of voice, which is hard to come by on social media, are a welcome contrast.
Taking to her Instagram to talk about her understanding of the concept of fashion, Zeenat shared a couple of pictures standing in an oversized white shirt and black pants from the new shoot. The actor said she is tired of hearing the word ‘bombshell’ and ‘diva’ attached to fashion all the time, and wants to pull the ‘focus on fun.’ Positive comments on the actor’s post were left by many, who praised her for defying stereotypes and serving as an inspiration.
Aman posed for the camera wearing a Payal Khandwala costume to celebrate her 50th Instagram post. Aman, who is never afraid to make a statement, defied the ageist fashion convention that “women of a certain age” should only wear neutral colour schemes. Aman wore a handwoven silk jacket in a lush green tone over her immaculate white shirt, giving the look the ideal pop of colour. The actor wore classic accessories including tiny golden earrings, black eyeglasses, and a brush of brick-red lipstick.
