Hello sir/mam. I'm having doubt regarding intimate wash, cleanliness and personal hygiene is what is my 1st priority .i'm using himalaya moms intimate wash for more than a year but came to know from an article that it is basically a chemical and fragrance which has nothing to do with maintaining of ph balance. There is absolutely no need to�wash�the vagina; it is a self-cleaning device with regular cell turnover and a highly-tuned ph and microbiome. Infact any intimate wash can disturb the normal maintaining process of vagina and in future for using this chemical an irreversible damage may happen. I've consulted this matter with 5 gynecologist and 2 of them strictly said no and 3 of them told me it's safe to use now pls help me with the accurate response. I've never faced any kind of infections or vagina related issues. But having doubt about the intimate wash it is safe or not! thank you.

Hello Maam, Vaginal secretions are good cleaning agents which are high in microbes at normal ph value. So no need to clean from inside in fact any interference from outside is like putting an external body leading to infection and altering ph of vagina. Just have clean water wash while bathing externally no additional application required. But still you wish to apply something at the vaginal lips then use coconut oil at night.
