When having sex, the most painful thing is the word "dry".
One person's dryness, two people's pain. How to do it? Use lubricant!
The condoms you usually use usually come with some lubricants, just to give you a better experience during sex.
However, some readers have raised their concerns in the background before:
Editor, I would like to ask, recently I started to try to use lubricant, but I don’t know how to clean it after having sex? Do you need to clean it inside? If I don’t clean it, will I get gynecological diseases?
After having sex, how should I clean it properly?
After indescribable, the body fluids and residual lubricants of men and women will more or less stick to the private parts, attached to the external genitals, especially to the female perineum.
This will create a moist, airtight environment for the private parts, thereby providing a favorable environment for the survival and reproduction of bacteria.
Therefore, you must wash your private parts in time after sex to prevent vaginitis and urinary tract infection .
Pay attention to the following three points when cleaning:
- Use flowing warm water to clean the vulva. If you can only use a basin, it must be dedicated to the basin.
- The order of washing follows the order of "from front to back": clean the vulva first → then wash the labia majora and minora → finally wash around the anus and anus to prevent bacteria in the anus from contaminating the vagina and urethral opening.
- If necessary, do not rinse the vagina, let alone abuse lotion .
Do I need to rinse the lubricant remaining in my body? What will happen if
is not washed?
Some people worry that only cleaning the outside will not clean the lubricant inside. You don’t have to worry about this.
The most commonly used lubricant should be water-soluble lubricant. Most of it will flow out with vaginal secretions. You only need to wash away the fluid that flows out.
As for the small part left in the body, you must know that the vagina has self-cleaning ability . You can safely leave it to it without human intervention.
The self-cleaning ability of the vagina comes from the beneficial bacteria it carries. If the vagina is washed frequently, the bacteria inside will be washed away. Then there will be no bacteria to guard the vaginal environment, and it will become very fragile and easy to Get sick.
Is using too much lubricant harmful to the body?
Lubricants are divided into three types: water-based, silicone-based and oil-based.
is water, which is called " oil-in-water " in the industry. Its advantages are good solubility, natural feeling, strong body acceptance, can be used with condoms, and is easier to clean. The disadvantage of
is that it is easy to evaporate and has weak persistence, so you have to add it again when it is gone.
. Silicone-based lubricant
has good durability, lubrication and waterproof, and can be used with condoms, but it is more troublesome to clean, slightly more expensive, and cannot be used with silicone small toys.
, oil-based lubricant
has ingredients similar to petroleum jelly . The biggest advantage is that it is super durable, but it is more troublesome to clean. More importantly, there are two "fatal" disadvantages:
① It is irritating to the body and is not easy to use in the vagina Decomposition and removal may also induce vaginitis in women;
② may dissolve condoms. When a condom breaks after using it, everyone will just complain about the poor quality of the condom, but who would have thought that it might be the lubricant!
Due to the safety issues of oil-based lubricants, they have been gradually eliminated from the market, and few manufacturers sell them.
Most of the existing lubricants in China are water-based lubricants. Generally, the lubricants produced by regular manufacturers are food grade . Not to mention smearing it on the skin, even if you accidentally eat it, there will be no big problem.
The same goes for silicone-based lubricants on condoms. Some people say that "condoms can easily cause gynecological diseases in women". This is completely nonsense and is more of an excuse for not wanting to wear condoms.
When using lubricants, pay attention to these 4 points
For the sake of good health, pay attention to these 4 points when buying and using lubricants:
Don’t buy some three-no products just because they are cheap, you must You must purchase lubricants from major brands through formal channels.
In addition, it is not recommended to buy some lubricants that are flavored or have other functions. They contain additional ingredients that may become allergens.
The simpler, the safer, colorless and odorless ones are best.
. When using
within the shelf life, be sure to confirm whether it is within the shelf life. After the shelf life, the ingredients may deteriorate and may also cause vaginal allergies.
. Before using it for the first time, do an allergy test
When using it for the first time, it is best to do an allergy test outside the skin, such as applying a little behind the ear to see if you are allergic.
. Do not use other items instead of lubricants.
What should I do if there is no lubricant at home when I need it?
Some people may use soap, shampoo, shower gel, , etc. as substitutes. reminds everyone, absolutely not!
We don’t recommend using toiletries in the private parts during bathing, let alone letting them run into the vagina.
If you don’t want to have endless troubles, it is best to use regular and practical lubricants. Do not use cooking oil, baby oil, hand cream, Vaseline, various toiletries, etc. instead of lubricants, otherwise it will easily lead to allergies and inflammation in the private parts.
