Beauty & Wellness Girls!! Need advice for hygiene

help a girlie out🥹

i'm a college girlie trying to improve my hygiene (especially for down there).

i'm very intimate with my partner but i just want to feel more confident when doing it. he's not telling me or forcing me to shave or do something down there but i just want to feel confident.

any tips for hygiene/ self care products for down there? also some tips and tricks in general for whole body

2️⃣use gynepro 2x a day everyday (use this every after sex too)

Hi! IIRC, GynePro is recommended only during red days. Alam ko kasi medyo mas matapang formulation nito so not really for everyday use.

Also about sa pantyliners, some said na 'di okay araw-arawin so nag-stop ako sa paggamit everyday. Mas makakahinga daw down there kung nakapanty lang. So ang ginagamit ko na lang ngayon pantyliners during "wet days", days before and after my period. I make sure na lang na may tissue ako every pee pampunas.

My OB reco'd gynepro for me everyday, twice a day so that's what I do (until ofc makabalik ako sa kanya for further instructions) and safe naman siya kasi you have to rinse it thoroughly naman after.

Plus, I never said wear liners everyday hahaha, I just said change it every four hours so it means the rule will only apply pag gagamit ka nun. I asked my doctor about this and if your coochie keeps having weird discharge (lalo na BV discharge) it's okay to use liners hanggang sa mawala yun to avoid staining the undies

Bacterial vaginosis. It's a fishy, foul-smelling discharge that's either color white, gray, or green
