Sweating is the body's way to cool down. This happens every time you feel hot. For example, after carrying out strenuous activities such as sports or using layers of clothing. Sweating can interfere with your activities, especially if sweat arises in the vaginal area. Not only disrupts activity, your vagina sweats and your health. What causes vaginal sweating and how to deal with it?
What causes vaginal sweating?
Vaginal sweating will trigger the development of various harmful organisms such as bacteria and fungi. The growth of these organisms can eventually cause vaginal infections.
For most women, vaginal sweating can be very disturbing because it usually makes the vagina smell and feel itchy. Then, what actually makes the vagina sweat?
1. Pubic hair
Pubic hair can be one of the causes of vaginal sweating. These fine hairs trap bacteria and moisture. So, pubic hair that is too thick can cause excessive sweating and also cause unpleasant odors. Therefore, it is important to keep the vaginal and surrounding areas dry and healthy.
2. Having excess weight
Women who are overweight or overweight will sweat more easily than women with ideal body weight. Also in your intimate area.
3. Inappropriate underwear material
The underwear used is important for you to pay attention to. Incorrect choice of underwear material can cause vaginal sweating.
Silk and lace underpants are hard to absorb sweat, so the vagina becomes moist and can trigger bacterial and fungal growth. Likewise, if your underwear is too narrow and tight.
How to deal with vaginal sweating?
Here's how to deal with vaginal sweating and steps to keep the vagina healthy and clean.
1. Choose the right underwear
By using original cotton underwear, your intimate organs can breathe more freely and can absorb sweat well. Also, avoid using pants that are too tight.
2. Directly change clothes after sweating
Exercise or doing other strenuous activities certainly makes you sweat more. Always try to change your clothes after sweating, including underwear.
Sweat can make intimate organs moist, and eventually it will provide an opportunity for bacteria or fungi to grow. This will make the vagina itchy and sometimes feel sore like a burn.
3. Shaving pubic hair
Pubic hair serves to reduce direct friction between clothing and your skin and also to catch sweat from your skin.
However, pubic hair that is too thick can also be a nest of bacteria. In the vaginal area there are good and bad bacteria, you need these good bacteria to prevent excess mold growth. However, when bacteria mix with sweat and oil in pubic hair, this will make the vagina become smelly and sweaty.
So, it is advisable to maintain clean pubic hair and neat shaving of fine hair in the area of your vagina. You don't need to shave it off, really. Just shave a little, which is important you are comfortable and no longer experience vaginal sweating.
