If you experience discomfort, a mild cleanser such as Lactacyd Soothing may help you feel more comfortable than will cleansing with a harsher cleanser or soap. A harsher cleanser or soap may dry the skin of the vulvar area and actually cause discomfort. Lactacyd products have a balanced pH and contain lactic acid, which respects the natural acidity of your intimate zone.
Lactacyd intimate washes will not cure an infection. Test results show that these feminine hygiene products can be used in combination with treatment of vaginal infection1. Lactacyd Soothing products can soothe and calm vaginal discomfort.
Sometimes an allergy can develop to one or more ingredients in a laundry detergent and your undergarments (and other laundered clothes) may cause itching and/or irritation. If this happens, you might want to try a dye- and fragrance-free detergent. Another possible cause for discomfort and itching may be incomplete rinsing of laundry detergent out of your clothes or undergarments.
No, it is not normal to have a fishy odor. An unpleasant or fishy odor is a symptom of a vaginal infection. You should see your doctor or gynecologist.
Yes, semen can affect the pH of your vagina. Your intimate zone has a pH of between 3.8 and 4.5. The pH of semen is somewhat higher, averaging 7.0. Your body can usually contend with it, but if you have a sensitive intimate zone or a weakened immune system it can upset the natural balance. It is recommend that you use the bathroom after intercourse – peeing after sex helps to prevent urinary tract infections and it washes away leftover sperm.
Lactacyd Moist wipes immediately give you a nice fresh feeling, while reinforcing the natural balance of your intimate zone.
Antibiotics can also trigger infections because they kill off the good bacteria in your vagina that keep yeast and other bad bacteria at bay; take a probiotic to help combat this.
Working out without showering afterward or leaving a damp bathing suit on for hours can make you more prone to irritation. Therefore, it is recommended that you wash your gym gear and shower after exercising, and use a balanced intimate washing product like Lactacyd to feel fresh and protected.
Is your intimate zone red or slightly swollen? Do you suffer from itching? Then you may have a vaginal irritation, for which there may be a number of causes. You may have washed your intimate zone with ordinary soap or shower gel. Irritation can also occur via contact with residual urine or feces. The use of scented toilet paper or wearing synthetic underwear (e.g. thongs), tight jeans, and pantyhose can also cause irritation to your intimate zone.
Lactacyd Pharma Soothing has a balanced pH (3.5) and contains endogenous lactic acid as well as soothing blue daisy extract. It helps to restore and protect the natural balance of your intimate zone. If you suspect you have a vaginal infection, see your doctor or gynecologist.
This may be due to a change in hormones as a consequence of menstruation, menopause, or because of a weakened resistance.
If sex is not as enjoyable as you would like, a lubricant or lubricated condom may be helpful. Never use saliva to moisten your vagina, because saliva has a different pH and the bacteria from your mouth might impair your vagina’s natural protection. Lactacyd Pharma Moisturizing has a balanced pH and contains moisturizing ingredients to bring extra hydration to your intimate zone. If you feel that your problems are more tricky, just ask your doctor or gynecologist for advice.
Any symptoms that are persistent (last more than a few days or come back with regularity), or itching that is accompanied by burning, inflammation, or discharge means it’s worth a visit to the doctor. Other red flags to look out for include pain during sex, changes to the outer skin of your vagina, or painful urination. These could be signs of a sexually transmitted disease.
