Vulva hygiene and cleaning

2023-05-26 15:44:32
I generally use a clean wash cloth with plain water to clean the vulva including labia majora, clitoris etc. However, I feel afraid to clean the inner side of labia minora. I want to know is it okay to clean the inner sides of labia minora in the same way as mentioned above. If not then please suggest suitable method.

Please you should appreciate that vagina is a self cleaning organ. The vaginal discharges will wash off all the discharges. You may clean the inside of the vagina .
