      Unlike an operating room, it is impossible to be sterile at home. There are many bacteria on sofas, chairs and even beds. Especially for hospitable hosts, it is impossible to "change the sofa cover for every guest", which will inevitably become a gathering place for bacteria. When you take a shower and sit on the sofa with your lower body cool, bacteria will take advantage of it and cause Gynecology Inflammation.

      Shaanxi Province women and children Liu Chen, director of the Second Gynecology Department of the health hospital, said that such "hollow" clothing requires very high hygiene conditions at home, otherwise it will easily cause Vaginitis disease.

      Liu Chen pointed out that unlike an operating room, it is impossible to be sterile at home. There are many bacteria on sofas, chairs and even beds. Especially for hospitable hosts, it is impossible to "change the sofa cover for every guest", which will inevitably become a gathering place for bacteria. When you take a shower and sit on the sofa with your lower body cool, bacteria will take advantage of it and cause gynecological inflammation.

      If one of the couple has athlete's foot or other skin disease , this kind of naked style of dressing will also make you susceptible to vaginitis.

      Liu Chen said that many female Most gynecological inflammations are inadvertently infected, especially in summer and early autumn, when the climate is hot and humid, making it easy to get fungal vaginitis. If you don't even wear underwear, it will make things worse.

      Therefore, women at home should never neglect to wear underwear in order to stay cool and sexy. Liu Chen said that only when gynecological inflammation requires drying treatment, you can wear clean bedding without underwear, separate your legs for ventilation, and use infrared lamps.

      In addition, in the hot and humid season of early autumn, to prevent vaginitis, try not to be "hollow" at home, and be careful not to wear tight underwear and jeans with poor breathability when going out. People who use antibiotics for a long time should pay attention to physical examination frequently to rule out the possibility of gynecological inflammation. You should also eat less spicy and exciting foods to avoid causing bacterial imbalance and inflammation.

      Some women clean their vulva excessively, which can also lead to bacterial imbalance. Director Liu suggested that under normal circumstances, it is enough to clean the vulva once a day. It is best to use clean water and do not use any night wash. If you find any discomfort, you must take medication under the guidance of a doctor. You must not take measures blindly.
