Question

The doctor an obgyn told me not to douche why? She said it was not healthy.?

Answer 1

it cleans you out except the v****a cleans itself anyway-it isn't good for your body and it is unnecessary.  

Answer 2

The v****a cleanses itself.

Using a douche can not only set your ph balance off kilter and cause infections, but it can push any bacteria that's inside your v****a back into it and cause PID (Pelvic Inflammatory Disease).

Answer 3

The v****a cleans itself.  Douching screws up the pH balance in the v****a and pushes bacteria into the uterus.  I have a friend who douched once when she was 16 and has been plagued by vaginal infections ever since.

Answer 4

It isn't healthy. It gives you a greater risk for bacterial infections. It takes away the body's natural cleansing method for that area for a few days, which obviously isn't good. Also, some douching formulas are not all that safe for your body, seeing as that area is much more sensitive
