We should never wash vagina from inside it gets clean automatically.
Outer area you can wash properly once during bathing.
You should wash outer area with plain water only, every time after passing urine or motion don't use any soap or special liquid.

Excessive washing not recommended
It washes away the healthy bacteria predisposing to more infection
