Being independent should not be done to little girls and teenagers. Doctissimo tells you everything you need to know about personal hygiene to avoid minor complications.
Little girl’s hygiene
Your little girl can bathe or wash herself once a day. She needs to be taught proper social work so that she can develop a good character. Vaginal douching is prohibited because it affects the vaginal flora. Also teach her to wipe from front to back after using the toilet to prevent bacteria from being transferred to her genitals. Depending on the product, there are hand sanitizers available that are appropriate for your daughter’s age, so be sure to consult your doctor or pharmacist. Finally, if your daughter goes to the pool or beach, it is recommended that she go to the bathroom twice a day and that her swimsuit not be soaked for long periods of time.
Girls’ bathrooms
Puberty represents a transition period between childhood and adolescence. Young women will face physical consequences. The most noticeable are breast development, the appearance of axillary and suprapubic hair, and menarche. In addition to the known morphological changes, there are many more mysterious changes. In fact, the external genitalia have increased in size. The symptoms and direction of the masks gradually change. Leucorrhea (white discharge) begins to be secreted more or less. These discharges are natural and do not need to be cleaned. If a young person is uncomfortable or has heavy discharge, consult a gynecologist immediately.
Personal hygiene and menarche
They occur on average at age 13, about two years after the appearance of milk. However, menstruation can also occur at age 10, and some young girls do not reach the age of 15 or 16. They are permanent and sometimes very painful. You should consult your gynecologist here. Pain is not inevitable and there is a solution.
Theoretically, everyone will find a suitable solution.
There are plenty of towels. All of our products are low profile, comfortable and highly absorbent. Sometimes it is recommended to try several to find the right one. Tampons are beneficial because they allow you to continue activities such as swimming. Contrary to popular belief, you can use them even if you are a virgin, but you should choose the “mini” ones. Tampons without an applicator are recommended for easier access for the first time. Whether you choose a towel or a tampon, the same rule applies: Remember to change them regularly.
personal hygiene
There are no special measures for personal hygiene. Time is not “dry” and young people will be uncomfortable and need to wash more often. They should be washed regularly, once or twice a day. You do not need to pay special attention to personal hygiene. Some products are available in gel or wipe form and their formulas need to be acidic (around pH 4) to suit the vaginal flora.
