👉 Maintaining vaginal health is ESSENTIAL for overall well-being. Dr. Leveno shares expert tips to prevent yeast infections:
🚫 Avoid fragrances: Steer clear of scented products like douches and tampons, as they can disrupt the delicate balance of the vaginal flora.
👖 Choose breathable fabrics: Opt for loose-fitting clothing to promote airflow and minimize moisture buildup.
🩲 Wear cotton underwear: Selecting underwear made from breathable fabrics like cotton can help keep the vaginal area dry and irritation-free.
🧼 Practice good hygiene: Keep the vaginal area clean and dry, and avoid harsh soaps or cleansers that can disrupt the natural pH balance.
😌 Reduce stress: Stress can weaken the immune system, making you more susceptible to infections. Incorporate relaxation techniques into your routine to promote overall well-being.
🥛 Enjoy yogurt: Incorporating yogurt with live cultures into your diet can help maintain a healthy balance of bacteria in the vagina.
