I would recommend not douching..I understand the need to feel clean and as a young woman I did the same thing. The problem with douching is that is washes away all he "normal bacteria" that we have..once that is gone then it is replaced by a over growth of bacteria that causes BV (bacterial vaginosis) this is not a STD but causes lots of discharge and odor..the burning you are having may be the start of BV or some other problem..I would see a doctor and have them do a pelvic exam and find out what is going on..if you are douching because you have a lot of discharge then I would also have a exam...

Because douching is very bad for your ph levels...you likely have a yeast infection from the imbalalnce. Best wishes

The burning may be a sign of a yeast infection. Go see your Dr.
and I agree with the others..stop douching it is unecessary!

most physicians tell you not to douche. it is not good for the body, and causes the vagina to become very dry. you are allergic to the chemicals in the douche.

Didn't anyone ever tell u that douching is harmful? It doesn't really cleanse you, it only pushes the bacteria back up. I would suggest you stop.

Well, first off, it is dangerous to douche. You are probably having an allergic reaction.

You may be allergic to the chemicals in that brand. Try switching and see if that helpls. If not try just the old combo of vinegar and water if still no luck go see your doctor.

You don't need to douche. Your vagina is "self cleaning". Stop doing it and it should clear up.
