Oh, puhleeze. The vagina is self-cleaning. It's not like your mouth, holding all kinds of particles in the teeth. The acid environment actually breaks down foreign materials and dead skin and it sloughs off to some degree. Because it's mucosa, it reabsorbs a lot of stuff that's been broken down already. IANAD but all mucosa does this to some extent. Douching removes natural lubricant and alters the pH, even if it's a balanced douche.
Nope, I don't douche. I have in the past, mostly for treatment reasons that interfere with my schedule.
