Can Vaginal Infections be Prevented?

While not all vaginal infections can be prevented, certain practices can reduce the risk:
- Maintain good hygiene by washing the genital area with mild soap and water.
- Avoid douching, which can disrupt the natural balance of bacteria in the vagina.
- Wear breathable, cotton underwear and avoid tight-fitting clothing.
- Practice safe sex by using condoms and having open discussions with partners about sexual health.
- Limit the use of scented hygiene products that can irritate the vaginal area.
