What's wrong with the pain in my lower body?

Gynecological diseases are more common among women. Therefore, women should pay attention to taking good care of their bodies, avoid fatigue, maintain personal hygiene, change and wash underwear frequently, and insist on exercising to enhance their resistance. Some women experience intermittent pain in their lower body, and some women don’t know what causes it and are worried. What’s wrong with the pain in their lower body? Let’s take a look at it next.

1. What is the cause of the pain in my lower body?

Vaginal pain is often caused by vaginitis, cervicitis, etc. It is recommended to go to a regular hospital's gynecology department for routine leucorrhea and colposcopy examinations, and then receive treatment after a clear diagnosis. Stop sexual life and pay attention to hygiene.

2. How to maintain your vagina?

1. Understand the structure of your genitals, the relative positions of the labia minora, urethra, and vagina. You can also use a mirror to examine them. Knowing more about the physiological structure will help you discover problems earlier.

2. Change sanitary napkins frequently during menstruation, and try not to wear tight, non-breathable clothing before and after menstruation, such as leather jackets, leather pants, jeans, tights, etc. It is best to wear pure cotton products. New underwear must be washed before wearing.

3. When in a healthy state, you should not wash your vulva more than twice a day. Washing refers to washing the vulva, not the vagina. You can rinse the vulva with warm water and then dry it with a clean towel. Under normal circumstances, the vagina does not need to be cleaned at all. There are many beneficial bacteria in the vagina, and the vagina itself will maintain cleanliness. Therefore, there will usually be some uneven, pale white secretions in small amounts, which are produced by normal vaginal self-cleaning. Frequent vaginal douching in the absence of infection may increase the chance of bacterial and fungal infection.

4. After using the toilet, remember to wipe from front to back to avoid bringing bacteria from the anus to the genitals.

5. Because hair has a protective function, it is best not to shave pubic hair to avoid irritation and infection.

6. When there is a lot of secretions, you can use a hair dryer with warm air to dry your vulva after taking a shower. If possible, put on your underwear after your vulva is relatively dry after taking a shower. Nowadays, there are many people who only wear skirts without underwear at home, or do not wear underwear when sleeping. From a medical point of view, this is actually better for the genitals.

7. If your clothes are wet, change into dry clothes as soon as possible, for example after swimming.

8. Pay more attention to the selection of sanitary products. Avoid using sanitary pads, tampons, or toilet paper containing fragrances, pigments, or deodorizing ingredients. Also be careful when using soap or shower gel when taking a bath. Try to choose neutral or slightly acidic lotions. Some shower gels may also cause allergies and discomfort.
