Can I clean my vagina during ovulation?

The purpose of vaginal cleansing is to remove vaginal secretions and bacteria to prevent infection. However, the vagina itself has a self-purifying effect and can clean itself. Therefore, excessive washing of the vagina may disrupt this self-cleansing effect, leading to an increased risk of infection.

It’s also not a good habit to clean your vagina during ovulation. Because vaginal secretions become more abundant during ovulation, this may cause inconvenience in cleaning and may also increase the risk of infection.

To sum up, vaginal cleansing should be done during daily bathing, not during ovulation. If you have any concerns or questions, please seek the advice of your physician or professional medical provider.
