No, washing the inside of your vagina is not necessary. The vagina cleanses itself, so there is no need to insert douches or similar products into the vagina. In addition, douching is a risk factor for bacterial vaginosis (BV). You can feel clean and fresh by using a mild cleanser with deodorizing agents, such as Lactacyd, to wash the external (vulvar) area.
Lactacyd products have an adapted pH that respects the natural acidity of the vagina. Moreover, they are very mild and soap-free, and are suitable for daily use.
Lactacyd can be used as of the first menstrual period. Generally, menstruation begins at around the age of 12, although it can begin earlier or later. Under the influence of hormones, secretions and odors can begin to occur. Lactacyd products for daily intimate care can help to maintain the natural balance of your intimate zone, helping you to feel fresh and confident.
Yes, millions of women have used Lactacyd with satisfaction. From your first period until after menopause, Lactacyd offers a complete range of intimate washes, tailored to every phase of your life.
The healthy vagina contains both good and bad bacteria. Normally, the good bacteria predominate and they keep the vaginal pH between 3.8 to 4.5 (slightly acidic). But sometimes women go through changes that can cause the bad bacteria to overgrow. When this happens, the bad bacteria proliferate and a vaginal infection may occur. Bacterial vaginosis (BV) and yeast infections (Candida) are the most common of these. With BV, the vaginal pH can go up to 6.0, or even higher in some cases. With yeast infections the pH does not change.
Lactacyd products are formulated with a pH of 3.5 or 5.2. The pH in Lactacyd products is maintained by the main ingredient, lactic acid, in harmony with the other components of this special formulation. This fairly low pH does not encourage the growth of the bad bacteria.

Feminine odor is entirely normal and many women experience it. Normal odors can be caused by sweat, bacteria, and hormonal fluctuations. Daily washing or showering with warm (not hot) water and a mild, non-irritating cleanser such as Lactacyd can help to reduce these odors.
If you have an unusual odor (fishy or very strong), this can be a sign of a vaginal infection.
