“Are vaginal washes safe?”
I have recently heard a lot about vaginal washes, but have been skeptical about their usage. Are these vaginal washes really safe? Or, is there a risk with infection?

No they may change your bacterial flora and may cause you more infection
Generally vaginal washers are sew safe if specially if you’re using vinegar Ior betadine wash however in the presence of bacterial vaginosis the infection can spread into the uterus and tubes so if you have a discharge consult your doctor
Vaginal washes are not advised. They have the potential of changing the PH of the vagina resulting in Bacterial Vaginosis
We don't recommend douching since it can wash out the "good bacteria" and leave the "bad bacteria" in your vagina. Without the good bacteria to keep the bad bacteria in check, you can have frequent vaginal infection. Also douching can push bacteria into your uterus and cause pelvic inflammatory disease which may contribute to infertility.
