Your "vigina" is self-cleaning. Leave it alone.

Really, you don't need to douche. Vagina's are self cleaning and like what a lot of other people have already told you, you are killing a lot of good bacteria and are making yourself prone to infections.
If you don't feel clean during the day, try wearing pantyliners. They whisk the moisture away from your body and collect any discharge you might have. You can change them as often as you wish.
Also, if you are going to continue douching. Read the instructions on the side of the package. I don't know what it says, but I know your not suppose to use it 3 times a day. You probably shouldn't even be using it on a daily basis. I'd say once a week tops if you feel that you really need to.

Firstoff, I'll state I'm a guy. Their is a reason the doctor told you to lay low on the douche. There are bacterias in the vagina that need to be there, constant douching washes them out.

If the doctor says lay low...LAY LOW! Your vagina does clean itself. I understand that you just want to "make sure" but it'll be okay of u go from 3 a day to 2 a day. As far as those film things go, I thought those were a contraceptive method. Hmm...you should figure out that soon.

God made the vagina to take care of itself. You don't need anything to make it clean. What I think you are referring to is normal discharge. That's how the vagina cleans itself so it's a good thing. This is naturally how a vagina should be. Douching really is not natural and often upsets the balance inside the vagina and can cause problems.

The primary use of the vagina is for 2 purposes - one for normal urination 2 for intercourse, Using these properly and usual cleanin after sex and when bathe should suffice in the normal circumstances

Eek. Get over yourself and your vagina issues. Douching that frequently is BAD for your vaginal health, killing a positive bacterial balance that could open you to infection.

douching is bad, it gets rid of the good bacteria and upsets your ph balance. if you're sensitive about your discharge, wear pantyliners, and use moist vaginal cleaning cloths, like the ones from Playtex.

Your doctor is correct. You don't need to douche to have a clean vagina.

not a woman here, but douches are over-rated, say the doctors. the human body has scent. get used to it.
