Feminine Hygiene: Our Tips For Smelling Good All Day

[@GirlofNyakach]

1. I let my Vjay clean itself and use water only everyday. But after Periods, I use the Vwash to clean for 3 consecutive days and stop. 2. After sex, i ensure to wash and use vwash vaginal wipes to ensure i remain fresh. 3. Drink a lot if pineapple water within the weak. I make my own using fresh pineapples and supplement with yoghurt. 4. I take a teaspoon of ACV in water thrice a week it also helps with maintaining freshness down there. 5. I see a gynaecologist every 3 months just to check if things are okay. I love myself. 6. I wear cotton pants ONLY.. no other material. 7. I shave clean and s ol sometimes wax, immediately after apply coconut oil for 3 consecutive days to help with keeping the bumps away. Works like magic. 8. Shower twice a day. And don't sleep in your underwear. Sleep commando. 9. Drink m.j k lots of water. Flushes off toxins. 10. Take primrose oil supplements. Helps with balancing hormones hence keeping your whole well being on point. 11. Just love yourself. Nobody else will love you if you don't live yourself.

You are the other Wilma that I have ever seen comment on KZbin (Kenyan video). It’s a rare name and VERY OLD. When I was in 🇰🇪, I went to a boarding school where i was the only Wilma. Then came to the 🇺🇸 and it’s quite rare. Anyway, have a nice day, namesake.

[@homesteadingwiththeangafam2158]

Thanks Catherine for the good work you are doing. I am among the women who were left to figure out everything for themselves, and to source feminine products for myself, it was so tough so painful, no dignity. Now as a mom to 2 girls and 2 boys, I know better. I love your beautiful daughters. Intelligent women.

[@Gracekiuna]

I would also advocate for a menstrual cup, i have used it for a year now amd its life changing, and our period doesn't have odour actually,the chemicals it mixes with on the pads gives it the smell. we also don't bleed as much as the pads and tampons are designed to make it look. They are designed to make us use soo many of them.

[@FashionableStepMum]

That's fantastic.

[@FashionableStepMum]

That's fantastic.

To be honest I dont wash my hands before going to the loo and I think its my one major take away from this.

[@aokookello5564]

I don't too. Honestly this is gonna take time for me.

[@hellenchepy772]

But I don't get why I should coz sitajishika with bare hands..si natumia tissue but if I'm on my period it makes sense

[@FashionableStepMum]

Glad you've learnt something, Emily

[@lisalisa-qy1mt]

@@hellenchepy772 ...yes, you will clean yourself with a tissue but what if you transferred germs from the tissue to your vjay

[@Izlandprincess1]

Baking soda helps....it cuts the smell and keeps you fresh all day. Could mix in the the water and rinse with it after showering. Some ppl also use it instead of roll on because it's natural and very effective.

[@Nyakairu.K]

I actually use conditioner before I shave. Life changing tip. It softens the hair. Then use aloe vera for 5 days.

[@FashionableStepMum]

People don’t know this but when you go to the bathroom either no 1 or2 use tissue to wipe your self then wipes to make it fresh if it smells have have a small spray bottle with soapy water rinse use wipe all done

[@faizamalik1660]

Hi Catherine, great content. Douching is a technique that ladies in the 70's and '80s used for down there and yes it is harmful and should never be used to clean lady parts. I have enjoyed today's Vlog.

[@FashionableStepMum]

Oh wow!

[@homesteadingwiththeangafam2158]

I teach my children to wash hands before using the bathroom and after for the same reason. If possible I tell them avoid touching door knobs and handles in public toilets or many contact places. Use elbows when necessary to press and shut. UTIs are mean. I thoroughly enjoyed the video today.

[@FashionableStepMum]

That's great. Way to go mom

[@NaiChic_KE]

Nice topic...However I think this was an opportunity to educate on the condition called HYPERHYDROSIS.Sweaty palms,armpit patches etc.may not necessarily be a reflection of poor hygiene but a genuine MEDICAL CONDITION.So yes,as Cathy said,say something with love,but also understand circumstances of some conditions.

[@FashionableStepMum]

Sure. You make a great point

[@sheilakay7]

[@mercykariuki7463]

Awesome discussion here Cathy..I wish someone talked to us about all these things growing up. Some of us never ever had a talk with our mothers /aunties . We figured it out ourselves and back then, we had no internet so it's just about what you learned in school. Good thing is now that we know better ,we can actually do better. Very good job you're doing in this Channel

[@FashionableStepMum]

Very true, Mercy.At least now we know we can talk to our daughters

[@KhajanyKhajany]

Do one on how to get pads to poor Kenyan girls. I saw some use old mattresses.

[@Kabeteshire]

Great topic ladies.The natural douche (water) is ok even though not necessary. The ready made one is the problem,it gives you Candida. The antibiotics are meant to be taken the same time with the pribiotics.

[@highlow4581]

[@leah4830]

I think spray deodorant works much better for those who sweat a lot. Roll-ons leave the area moist, so you still sweat, leaving sweat stains on the clothe😊. Dove spray deodorants work pretty well, with okay scents. I tried Nivea too, but happened to cause sneezing since their sprays are really strong. And yes, deo for men is pretty long lasting.

[@liberatambua7271]

Deodorant fails if you don't let it dry first before putting on your clothes.

[@FashionableStepMum]

Thanks for sharing!!

[@WanjiruAnne]

I have just watched this and I'm just sad because there are so many girls out there who have never heard these things because let's be honest not so many of us were taught how to watch our vaginas. Many girls learn these things from their friends once at high school depending on how open minded one is. I also think there should be more awareness on visiting the gynaecologists, let these conversations be open out there. Mums out here don't talk about this.

Fun fact; menstrual blood doesn’t smell, I started using a menstrual cup this year and there is literally no smell. I think the smell occurs when the blood mixes with elements of the pad or the tampon. Cc: The Grace Cup on KZbin.

If I'm wearing a tampon I'd change every toilet visit, this is because pee gets on the sting and travels up to the tampon. The thought of it just makes me cringe😬 I think it also helps that I pee every 3hrs or so

As for pap smear the current medical research has been updated it doesn't have to be done yearly...the current research recommends that if you are 21 to 29 years old, you should get a Pap test every 3 years.

Did l hear right "take prebiotic after antibiotic? Normally you start prebiotic alongside the antibiotic and 3-5 days after.

[@normynorms4584]

If you take a probiotic at the same time with an antibiotic you are negating the power of the antibiotics. Antibiotics kills all bacteria whereas probiotics ads the bacteria . So if you take an antibiotic alongside a probiotic, the antibiotics will kill the probiotics. It's advisable to take a probiotic at least 1 -2 hrs before or after taking a probiotic
