An unhealthy v*gina could mean you have contracted an STD, and this can be deadly. Ignoring symptoms can even affect your reproductive health.
The v*gina is one important body part you should never ignore. Any
suspicious changes should be investigated as you risk major issues to
your body if you keep assuming all is well.
An unhealthy v*gina could mean you have contracted an STD, and this
can be deadly. Ignoring symptoms can even affect your reproductive
health.
Here are 6 signs you are fine down there:
1. No itching
In general, a healthy vagina won’t give you any trouble. Anything
from hormonal fluctuations to yeast infections can cause vaginal
itchiness. So if everything feels A-OK down there, it’s probably in good
working order.
2. Normal discharge
Discharge can vary throughout your cycle. According to WebMD,
normal discharge may be clear, cloudy, thin, or thick. As long as it
isn’t itchy or any unusual color, you probably have a clean bill of
health.
3. Normal scent
It’s normal for your v*gina to have a slight odor, and chances are
you know what’s typical for your own equipment. While a strong,
“rotting” kind of odor could signify an infection, a bit of scent is to
be expected.
4. No obvious spots or irritation
Healthy v*ginas are rather unblemished. If you have certain STDs,
then this may cause red, itchy, painful sores to develop. So if things
look smooth and and nothing hurts, that’s a good sign.
5. No pain
In general, pain signifies a problem. Some women have to deal with
debilitating conditions such as endometriosis or pelvic inflammatory
disease that can hurt considerably. So if you don’t have to think twice
about whethervag things hurt down there, you’re likely in good health.
6. Pain-free s*x
Of course a bit of pain may be expected when things get a little
wild. But according to WebMD, women may experience extreme pain during
s*x because of conditions such as vaginismus, infections, or problems
with the cervix.
If you’re generally able to do the deed without any ill effects, then your v*gina is likely in great health.
