Special care for children's intimate hygiene? Intimate Hygiene Everyday as Prevention of Vulvovaginitis!

Vulvovaginitis are the biggest cause of seeking pediatric gynecology consultation, accounting for about 70-80%.

It is characterized by an inflammation of the female genital tissues and occurs frequently in the girl, due to several factors:

  • Anatomically, the girl's intimate area is poorly developed, has thin skin, without pubic hair, the large and small lips are not yet fully developed, making the intimate area more unprotected, sensitive and easily inflamed by exposure irritating or pathogenic agents;
  • The girl's vulvovaginal zone has an alkaline or basic pH until her first menstruation. This fact, together with the hot temperature and the characteristic humidity of the vaginal cavity, become the ideal conditions for the development of pathogenic microorganisms;
  • There is a close proximity between the anal orifice and the vagina, and therefore fecal bacteria can be transmitted to the vulvovaginal area;
  • Hygiene is often deficient and / or the use of hygiene products is not the most appropriate;
  • Certain games with sand or dirt still facilitate the appearance of irritation, redness and bacterial contamination;
  • The use of tight clothing or synthetic material, which does not allow perspiration or secretions to evaporate, can macerate and cause inflammation;
  • In a situation of vulvovaginitis, the most frequently found signs and symptoms are the presence of burning, pain, pain when urinating, itching, bleeding, inflammation, redness and there may often be vaginal discharge.
