[nextpage title=”…”]
Taking proper care of your honey pot is incredibly important to ensure bacteria doesn’t enter. There is a variety of products available on the market that claim to improve the health and stop odors from occurring in the female genitals.

Steaming
Several celebrities have come out and said that they have benefited from steaming their genital region. The process involves sitting on a stool while a steaming container of mugwort tea combined with wormwood and other herbs is placed under the honey pot. The idea behind the Chinese practice is that the steam enters the body, cleaning the honey pot and uterus and keeps infections away. Gynecologists, however, caution against the practice. There is no scientific evidence that backs up these claims and the hot steam could cause burns in the honey pot and vulva.
Douching
The honey pot is amazing in that it not only expands enough to fit an entire baby during birth, but it also cleanses itself. Many women use douches, products that use water and cleaners, to clean out their honey pot. Doctors recommend that women never use douches. They can cause infection, lead to infertility and have been linked to $** transmitted infections. The only part that should be regularly cleaned is the skin on the outside of the honeypot, which is the vulva. Always wipe from front to back when using the restroom and cleanse the vulva gently by just using warm water in the shower.
Scented Soaps and Detergents

Piercing
Several years ago, genital piercing became very popular. Unfortunately, it can be a very bad thing when it comes to honey pot health.

The piercing can cause irritation, may rip or get caught on clothing and may allow bacteria and infection to enter the genital area.
Self-Medicating with Essential Oils
There are many natural remedies for honey pot problems; unfortunately, essential oils shouldn’t be one of them. Doctors report patients coming into the office with burns, infections, and irritation from using essential oils to remedy honey pot problems. Because the honey pot is self-cleansing, it doesn’t need help from outside oils or products to keep it clean. Essential oils are also very strong on their own and should never be applied directly to sensitive areas, such as the genitals.
