3. Think very well before wearing thongs and g-strings
Due to the nature of the design, thongs can potentially promote transmission of colon bacteria towards and into the vagina. This potentially will disrupt the normal bacterial antenna and increase the risk of vaginal and urinary infections.
A good general rule of wearing thongs: limit your thong use to when you really need to wear your bodycon dresses or pants.
4. Study the stains
You should be paying attention because your discharge can tell you a lot about your health and whether things are working as they should down under.
If you notice the colour of your discharge is getting different from what it was when you first knew you had an infection, please talk to your physician.
Often an off-white discharge is not concerning, but if you have an odorous discharge or notice new blood and you are not about to menstruate, you should call the doctor to discuss it immediately.
