Re: Genital hygiene related to camming
Have you gotten checked for STDs? Some can have symptoms very similar to a yeast infection, and sometimes you can have no symptoms for a really long time then develop symptoms, so even though you say you don't have a boyfriend now, you could have gotten something from a previous boyfriend and never known. I also agree with what Peaches said about the possibility that a food sensitivity is causing it. Try cutting out gluten for a couple weeks. It's actually easier than you think because a lot of stores, even Walmart, carry gluten-free products like pasta, cereal, bread, cookies, etc.

Depends how MUCH heat. Body temp? Yes, favourable for bacterial growth, usually. But higher temperatures KILL bacteria. This is why surgical tools are sterilized in an autoclave, drinking water in third world countries is boiled before use, etc.

Some bacteria can live in extreme conditions. Called "extremophiles". Such as in hydrothermal vents. But body temperature is the BEST temp for breeding bacteria.
Re: Genital hygiene related to camming
^^^ Yes, I'm aware of this. Hence my use of the word "usually". :-)
Re: Genital hygiene related to camming
I should have been more accurate ;) From my obgyn , all of us since we are ladies should know this he states never to take a hot bath, actually not to sit in it, if YOU must take a BATH try not sit long bc bacteria can grow. (Some ppl do not have showers) I know about the autoclave and drinking water due to my "career" Yes you are correct it is not a accurate statement.

Re: Genital hygiene related to camming
All in all just clean toys, stop douching and throwing hot water up your pussy. Take showers, clean toys between shows, clean toys after shows, let toys breathe, do not package them up right after cleaning them. EVERYTHING NEEDS TO BREATHE IN ORDER TO SURVIVE..;)

Cool, dark, damp / hot, dark, damp. Your body temp can produce bacteria, which is how we have it. It's the overgrowth that causes problems or in OP's case, undergrowth :)

Some people just GET them, you know? I've only had one 1x and it was due to being on a strong dose4 of antibiotics.
Yeah I just get them a lot and I dont do much to cause them. Chug some water and cranberry juice lol

Even i pay alot of attention to hygiene i still have to deal with this unpleasant event.
Ok, i am used to wash my kitty inside too (using water only) since i cam cause i am thinking is better for hygiene and to get rid of any odor and lube after work shift, for outside i use a special intimate gel, looks like this is affecting my vagina normal ph balance and washes out the normal protecting bacteria living there, thats what my doc said, she doesent know i cam.
How do you ladies do things? Wash inside before/ after work? My kitty is soo sensitive, i always make sure my hands are clean when i touch myself, keyboard and mouse are clean too, i pay attention what objects i touch when camming still i'll have this problem time to time.
Btw, i saw many girls on cam using fingers or toys from mouth to pussy then to ass then back to pussy/ mouth, i was like wtf, this is soo risky, i do none of these and still getting problems (no offence to performers doing what they doing but i am concerned about hygiene here).
Please if you can relate, how u keep your kitty clean or u get these infection too and how u deal with the situation?
Thank you!
I used to douche when I was a teenager and caught BV from doing that. Didn't know how to resolve it and suffered for 7 years, feeling like an unhygienic ass who couldn't get her coochie to act right. Long story short, I figured out the "cure" for BV and am a huuuuuuggee advocate for letting your vagina clean itself. I wouldn't even force water up there. It's just not needed.
I had my first girl-on-girl experience earlier this year and THE NEXT DAY experienced BV symptoms (apparently you can "catch" it from other women but cannot pass it on to men) so girl sex is out of the question for me as well. I already knew what to do this time around so I was good within the week. But I almost get a case of PTSD when I hear about women putting anything up there. Them problems aint what you want.
Anyway to keep it clean I just cleanse the outside like normal and (after my period) I might rub a little coconut oil on my vaginal lips but that is it.
Side Note: how dick passes the vaginal test but cleansing products like water and ACV don't, I'll never know.

boric acid capsules are a life hack for vag infections
Re: Genital hygiene related to camming
I tend to get yeast infections if I wear jeans too long in a day. Also I stay away from the intimate cleaning products. They are so popular over here in Europe I see them next to everyone's bidet so I do keep them next to the bidet in my guest bathroom but I wont use them myself cause I always seem to get a yeast infection if I use them.

Agree! It's the only thing that works for me. Takes care of all symptoms over night. Miracle cure.
