I used to douche before getting pregnant and now im worried if its safe to continue. Trying to conceive actually. Does it affect anything? thoda confused
With twins, my doctor already had me on high alert for infections, so douching was a big NO. Honestly, who even has the energy for all that extra cleaning when you can barely see your toes? Just wash normally!
Vaginal douching is medically not recommended at all, especially during pregnancy as it alters the natural vaginal flora and can lead to bacterial infections. It's best to consult your OB-GYN regarding safe intimate hygiene practices.
Straight answer: No douching. It washes away the good bacteria and can cause vaginal infections which are risky for the baby. Stick to mild soap outside or just plain water.
Haan na, douching se standard infections ho sakte hain jo pregnancy me bilkul safe nahi hai. Normal paani se wash karna is more than enough, doctor se consult kar lo ek baar.
I read somewhere that vaginal douching is really bad during pregnancy because it can cause infections. I am in my second trimester and quite worried about hygiene. Have any of you been told about this by your doctors?
I remember asking my gynac about intimate washes when I had some discomfort, and she strictly said no to douching! She said it can disturb the baby's protective environment. Better to ask your doc if you have irritation.
Maintaining hygiene is important especially if you do prenatal yoga or walking, but douching is highly unsafe. My trainer also advised just taking a normal bath. If you feel itchy, ask your doctor instead.
Humare yahan to purane log douching jaisi cheezein kabhi nahi karte the. Yeh sab nuksan kar sakta hai pet me bacche ko. Aap sirf saaf paani use karo aur doctor didi se baat kar lo.
I also got super scared about vaginal cleaning in my first trimester and thought of douching, but thank god my doctor stopped me! She explained the body cleans itself naturally. So please don't do it, it's completely safe to just wash externally.
Having a history of PCOS made me extra cautious about every minor thing. Douching can increase the risk of complications, so I completely avoided it. Please stick to safe, basic washing and check with your doc.
During my first pregnancy, I felt so paranoid about staying clean down there. But my doctor strictly told me that douching can harm the baby and cause preterm labor. I am so glad I asked her first before doing anything.
