Women regularly use intimate wash for everyday freshness as part of their daily cleansing routine. Currently, there are many different intimate feminine hygiene products that may be used for personal cleaning and/or odour control, though it’s a good thing that feminine hygiene is easily available to more and more women, at the same time it is worrisome to see the quality of products available in the market.

Many products are formulated with bad quality surfactants which may harm the pH level of intimate areas and are harmful for the skin. In order to provide a cheaper product, the ingredients used are of lower quality standards that have long term ill effects for the customer as those products can alter the normal pH level/microbiota needed for protection against infection. 

Education about the importance of, and potential risks associated with, female intimate hygiene is an important priority for both health care professionals and women to advance overall intimate health and hygiene.

Gentle vulvar cleansing is desirable, and evidence suggests that it is an important aspect of daily female intimate care and overall vulvovaginal health. Because of the risks associated with internal washing/douching, external feminine gel wash are considered more appropriate for intimate health, particularly those containing natural actives and ingredients. Intimate parts cleansing may be a useful for women with odorous vaginal discharge, and daily use of a feminine wash may reduce the risk of recurrence of bacterial vaginosis.

Many factors, such as immune deficiency, hormonal changes, stress, or use of a vaginal douche or soap to clean the vagina, may upset the normal flora and cause infections. Harsh soaps may also irritate the vulvar skin and mucous membranes and provoke or aggravate vulvar dermatitis, thus feminine wash products should be formulated and tested specifically for the vulvar area to ensure that they do not cause skin irritation or sensitization.

Thus, clinical practice guidelines recommend women to use a pH-balanced hypoallergenic cleansing agent that are Paraben and Sulphate free for daily vulvar cleansing.

These external washes need to be carefully formulated for mild, gentle cleansing without impacting the natural flora, particularly in cultures where women may use these products frequently.

They should be well tolerated and provide targeted antimicrobial and other health benefits without negatively impacting the natural vulvovaginal microbiota.

Besides Hygiene, hyperpigmentation in intimate areas is a common issue and there are good products available in the market which provide Whitening & Lightening Intimate Hygiene Wash and also remove hyperpigmentation.
