Personal hygiene is very important, it prevents certain bacteria, infections, and can help prevent diseases when done right. Not to mention, it’s very helpful in the bedroom during that special moment with the person you care about the most.
Why Is Hygiene Important?
Personal hygiene is important because it not only means you care about yourself but it can also affect your mental health as well. Not taking care of yourself can result in depression, anxiety, and other mental illnesses too.
How To Become More Hygienic
Steps to take when working on person hygiene can be as simple or as short as you like. For men, taking care of your skin, private area, and showering on a regular basis is critical to your overall health and wellbeing.
Hygiene for women, has a lot more steps than a man normally would, but is still a vital part of our overall health know matter how large and intensive the steps might be. For women, personal hygiene can look like washing the body, yoni steams, facials, vajacials, waxing, and oiling the skin to name a few.
All of these steps and treatments are a great way to protect the body and help keep you looking young and rejuvenated. Not to mention being more hygienic makes you feel good and creates a more outlook on how you view yourself.
Being Hygienic In The Bedroom
Taking care of your body is one thing but taking care of your body because of another is something entirely different. During those special moments in the bedroom, you want to think about how the hygienic decisions you make or lack there of can affect the body of someone else.
For instance, for men entering a woman, not being clean down in the private area aside from it being gross, can affect a woman’s ph balance, causing increase in bacteria, transmission of STIs, and diseases. Another example would be, not getting checked or tested when you have vaginal dryness can not only be uncomfortable to both but can cause some serious problems as well like bleeding, itching, discharge, pain, and a UTI which can affect both partners if not taken care of correctly.
Aftercare After Being Intimate
Aftercare is essentially the recovery stage after being intimate with your partner. It can be as simple as helping your partner clean up or as more complex and pleasurable as an “I love you Massage” to help release any tension or just to keep the mood and level of intimacy going.
Aftercare is a vital part of post sexual intercourse because it creates a healthy environment between you and your partner, can strengthen your connection between each other, creates a level of trust, and creates a safe environment away from embarrassment that allows each other to feel like one and allow them to be themselves in a more vulnerable way.
Overall, being hygienic is good for you and your partner to protect you both from diseases, keep you safe, and create an environment that betters your relationship overall.
Stay Hygienic!
