Intimate Hygiene and Prevention: Small Gestures, Great Pleasure

I know, talking about intimate hygiene and prevention may seem unsexy, But do you know what's even less sexy? Irritations, bad smells and discomfort that ruin the moment. Taking care of your private parts is not just a matter of cleanliness, but a way to experience sex with more freedom and enjoy it to the fullest.

Let's keep it simple: do you want to avoid embarrassing situations under the sheets? I'll reveal everything you need to know for perfect intimate hygiene (without paranoia and without mistakes).

Intimate Hygiene = Guaranteed Pleasure

It’s not just a matter of freshness: good hygiene improves pleasure. If the intimate area is healthy, it is more sensitive and reactive to stimuli. If, on the other hand, it is irritated or out of balance… well, the fire of passion could turn into an annoying itch (and nobody wants that).

🔹 More hygiene = more safety → Less risk of infections, more peace of mind in relationships.


🔹 More hygiene = more pleasure → A balanced bacterial flora helps lubrication and sensitivity.


🔹 More hygiene = more self-esteem → Feeling fresh and comfortable makes everything more spontaneous and fulfilling.

And now, let's see how to do it well (without being obsessed with cleanliness).

The Golden Rules for Proper Intimate Hygiene

Intimate Hygiene and Prevention

1️⃣ Choose the Right Detergent (No, Hand Soap Doesn't Count!)

Do you wash your face with dish soap? No? So why would you wash your private parts with any soap?

Use gentle intimate cleansers , with a physiological pH (between 3.5 and 5.5 for women, around 7 for men), without artificial perfumes or aggressive substances. Regular soap can alter the bacterial flora, causing dryness and irritation.

💡 Try : products with aloe vera, lactic acid or soothing natural extracts.

2️⃣ Washing Too Much Is Bad For You (Surprise!)

If you think that washing yourself 5 times a day makes you cleaner, I have bad news: you're making a mess .

Excessive washing destroys the good bacteria, the ones that protect against infections. Twice a day is enough , unless you've been exercising or had a particularly hectic night.

💡 Golden rule : Intimate hygiene is like perfume: too much can be annoying!

3️⃣ Dry Yourself Well (Humidity Is Not Your Friend)

After showering, pat dry with a soft towel, without rubbing. Humidity is a haven for bacteria, so it's best not to leave the area damp for too long.

❌ Blow-drying? No need to turn your bathroom into a beauty salon for intimate parts!

4️⃣ Choosing Underwear: Cotton vs. Sexy Lace

Okay, lace is gorgeous. But if you wear it 24/7, your intimate area might rebel. Cotton is breathable and reduces the risk of irritation .

🔥 Smart tip : If you want to show off your hot outfit, wear it for the occasion, but for everyday wear it's better to opt for something more comfortable and healthy.

5️⃣ Before and After Sex: A Little Bit of Care Avoids a Sea of ​​Problems

Before : A quick wash is a sign of respect for your partner and helps reduce the risk of infections.


After : Urinating after sex (especially for women) helps prevent urinary tract infections. Gentle cleansing removes any residual lubricants or body fluids.

💡 Extra tip : If you use sex toys, always wash them before and after use with a specific detergent. No, a quick rinse under water is not enough!

Intimate Hygiene: Myths to Debunk

"The vagina should be washed internally" → No, no and no again! The vagina is self-cleaning. Internal washing alters the pH and increases the risk of infections.


"Intimate odor should be covered with perfumes" → If there is an unpleasant odor, there could be an infection. A natural odor is normal, there is no need to spray half a perfume shop.


"Men don't need special cleansers" → They do too! Harsh soap can cause irritation and dryness.
