Using chemical products for intimate hygiene can result in dryness. Women should embrace the super-safe and effective traditional steam bath method.
This traditional steam bath method helps women maintain cleanliness and a naturally rosy intimate area, free from itching. Particularly suitable for women who have recently given birth or are pregnant, dealing with the discoloration and loss of confidence in intimate matters.
1. Traditional Steam Bath Method for Intimate Hygiene
Essential Ingredients for Traditional Intimate Hygiene:
- Betel leaves: 2 handfuls;
- Green tea leaves: 2 handfuls;
- Salt: 2 tablespoons.
Betel leaves have the ability to inhibit bacteria, protozoa, fungi, etc., making them effective in preventing the invasion of harmful bacteria into the sensitive area of women. Betel leaves help prevent fungal infections and keep the intimate area dry. Green tea leaves, a popular herbal drink in Vietnam and worldwide, contain antioxidants that slow down the development of cancer. Using these leaves for intimate hygiene is highly beneficial.
Choose disease-free green tea leaves for intimate hygiene
Steps to perform traditional intimate hygiene using steam bath method
Step 1: Select betel leaves and green tea leaves that are large, mature, and disease-free. After purchase, clean the two types of leaves and crush them by hand to release their essence into the water. Next, boil about 2 liters of water in a pot. When the water is boiling, add the crushed leaves and continue boiling for another 10 minutes. After 10 minutes, turn off the heat and let the pot sit covered for another 10 minutes.

Step 2: Prepare a small basin, add 2 tablespoons of salt, pour the boiled betel and tea water into the basin, remove the leaves, stir well. Then, remove your underwear, clean the intimate area with water, and sit over the basin to steam for 10 minutes (note: only steam when the water temperature is tolerable, avoiding burns).
Step 3: When the water cools down and no longer emits much steam, add cold water so that the water is warm enough to touch without being too hot. Gently use that water to clean the external intimate area several times until the water is used up.
Repeat this steam bath procedure about 1-2 times a week for a fragrant and healthy intimate area. For postpartum women, performing this more frequently helps the intimate area recover quickly and stay clean, preventing infections.
