When it comes to intimate care, one word appears more and more often: pH balance. But what does it really mean, and why is it so important for your well-being?
Understanding pH and Intimate Health
The vaginal area has a natural protective barrier with a slightly acidic pH—typically between 3.8 and 4.5. This delicate balance helps maintain good bacteria (like lactobacilli) while preventing harmful microbes from thriving. When pH is disrupted, women may experience discomfort, dryness, irritation, or infections.
Common pH Disruptors
-
Harsh soaps and fragranced washes
-
Stress and poor diet
-
Hormonal changes (menstruation, pregnancy, menopause)
-
Tight synthetic underwear or lack of airflow
-
Environmental pollution and lifestyle stress
