Things Women Should Always Do After s*x

There are few things a woman should do to keep healthy after sex. Good hygiene should always be the rule,not the exception, especially after sexual contact.

Here are super easy and actually enjoyable post-cookie rituals to keep your pu**y happy and healthy.
 
Wipe Down With Non-Smelly Soap and Water

"Sexual lubricants and bacteria from the fingers, mouth, and rectum can increase your chance of developing a yeast or bacterial infection," says Ross, who recommends using a non-fragrant soap around your lady parts after sex. Simply take a warm washcloth and gently dab the area with soap and water (or just warm water), moving from front to back. Internal cleaning isn't necessary: The vagina has its own internal wash cycle that ke
eps it clean and balanced, she adds. In other words, no douches allowed.
 
Pee!
 The vagina is a perfect breeding ground for bacteria, because of its moist and warm nature. That’s why you must pee within the next 30minutes after sex.


Soak in the Bathtub

Besides making you feel like the pampered sex queen that you are, adding extra virgin coconut oil to a warm bath can help hydrate the skin of the outer vagina and sooth any vaginal swelling or irritation that occurs after doing the deed, says Ross. Again, this reduces your risk of infection, she says.
Note your discomfort during sex. Sometimes, sex can be painful or uncomfortable for a woman. It is therefore important for you to keep a note of when this happens. There are multiple reasons why sex can be painful for women. The most common reason is vagina dryness. Constipation, or muscle spasm can also be responsible; just as deep penetration can also make sex painful, especially if your partner isn’t hard enough. If you regularly feel discomfort during sex, it is better to consult a doctor.

Drink Water
 
Just like with exercise, you may need to hydrate after a vigorous romp," says Nicole Scott, M.D., ob-gyn at Indiana University Health. Dehydration affects your entire body, so if your mouth is dry and/or your vag felt like sandpaper during sex you definitely need to refuel with water. Right after your roll in the hay, chug a pint or two of H2O. That will hydrate you and help flush pesky UTI-causing bacteria from your bladder.
 
Eat Probiotic-Rich Foods
 
"Yogurt, kimchi, kombucha, and other fermented foods have the same good bacteria that are found in the vagina," says Kelly Kasper, M.D., ob-gyn at Indiana University Health. Getting into the habit of snacking on these foods after sex can help to replenish the body's good bacteria, helping to decrease your risk of a yeast infection.

Don’t wear panties!

 Once you’re so fresh and so clean-clean, ward off UTIs and other infections by wearing cotton underwear and loose-fitting pyjamas to keep your privates dry — or, better yet, go commando for optimum air circulation. At the very least, avoid nylon underwear and tight-fitting sleepwear, which can trap moisture and help bacteria grow, according to the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases.
