Hi ladies,
After every client I see.
I'm curious as to what I should use to keep a balanced ph.
I used femfresh and that gave me thrush. I am now using a normal bath and shower soap (Imperial Leather).
Is there anything like femfresh that I can use that is safe and isn't as harsh?
Thanks x

Hey girlie,
I had some serious irritation and thrush issues down there a few months ago and completely feel for you! Its horrible.
I got told by my doctor that femfresh and all of the vaginal cleansers are all just marketing hype and should be avoided, as well as normal soap and shower gel. Water should do the trick, but I know for me I always feel a bit paranoid about just washing with water. My doctor gave me some Aqueous cream, and that has been wonderful, its not scented but I still feel that it cleans, as it lathers up a little if you dilute it. Best of all its really cheap and you can get it in boots :) I think my doctor gave me a specific one for washing though, so you might need to find that one.
Good luck

Give Canesten cream wash a try, it's really good.
-
hmm, water alone certainly doesn't do the trick for me. i use normal body soap, even if it's acid based or what not.

I like cetaphil face wash from Boots, its recommended by dermatologists for your face and is good for sensitive skin as its non perfumed and very simple so I feel like its perfectly fine for my hoo-ha too

I use Femfresh with Frangipani,and white litty.It's mildest of them all.I get hrush when someone sticks finger from anus to vagina.Some man don't have a clue how easy is to transfer something nasty :FF

I agree with Casey, it's Aqueous cream all the way. ;D
They recommend you use ONLY this at the clinic and it is all you need (btw they know my profession) so there is the definitive answer although not very glamorous. ::)
I would like to find some in some sexy packaging though.

I use femfresh for my lady bits and Sanex for my body :) And I give my fanny a face pack on weekends i.e. smothered in Sudocream

just water,i have baths then a shower,and before i see men use a baby wipe non perfume,i never smell and never get thrush,its the rest of my body that gets washed with shower gel..
water really is enough

I cant use lubes either they tend to burn :( tried it with anal as I get naturally wet.
-
Have you tried the silicone ones? I use the I.D glide one and I haven't had problems :)

Water and use a body scrub to stop ingrowns - usually breakfast scrub by soap and glory.
I don't use lube and don't see more than one a day so it works fine for me. :)

I use vagisil which is slightly acidic. You want something that's a very mild acid, and many soaps are alkaline, which is bad. The vagina is naturally acidic, which prevents the growth of fungus (yeast/thrush) and the wrong kind of bacteria
There are various vaginal suppository gels that you can use overnight to keep the ph correct (florafem, balance activ), and you can also use dilute vinegar (apple cider, never balsamic)

I only use water or femfresh that dont give me an itchy reaction.

Water and mild soap.

I use water alone down there as infection happens with soap. Hi ladies,

I get a water infection when they do that. So now when they go to do it they are asked to wash their hands after before going in the other hole. Many guys in my experience are pure lazy so the miss anal play.
