Ladies -- a question about washing.

I use anti-bacterial soap (Dial) and believe it or not, haven't had any problems! Guess I am lucky!! 8)

i use dial as well (the regular gold bar), even though it is recommended to use unscented soaps that are not antibacterial or antimicrobial. if it isn't a problem for your body, there's no reason to switch things up.

word hahaha. Sometimes I also use my regular soap there before I use my pH wash. I just wanna feel squeaky clean and it sure hasnt caused me any problems.
I cant imagine just using water. ugh.

you get used to it, usually. my reasoning for not using soap period is because as i got older, it started causing me to have yeast infections.

^ of course....I meant for myself

I never feel clean if I do that. But it does help tremendously!

Of course. I felt the same way too, but it took a while for me to get used to it. I think the constant YIs were enough for me to get over it a lot quicker.

One gynaecologist I went to recommended using baby oil instead of just water... I'd recommend the Lactacyd Femina or any similar soap-free wash with lactic acid, and this is coming from someone who gets itchy just glancing at a regular wash (pH balanced or not), but if not, try the baby oil. I didn't like that method much, but it cleans better than just water.
