199: How to Care for Your Vagina

This episode is inspired by a graphic we shared from the woman's dietitian, so I wanted to shout out Cory for inspiring this episode.  I also wanted to record this episode because it seems to be a taboo subject, where we all NEED to know what to do, but it's so rarely touched upon! Back in the day, women were told their vaginas were dirty and needed to be cleaned and smell good to keep their husbands happy, talk about a sexist message.   I'll also say that it's almost funny to me that I'm recording this episode, because until a few years back I knew nothing about vaginal care. Since we help clients get their periods back from disordered eating and orthorexia, I started getting more and more questions about vaginal care and here we ARE.    My main thing I want you to walk away from this episode knowing is that your vagina is a self cleaning organ, so the inside (your actual vagina) does not need to be cleaned. Listen to today's episode to learn more about vaginal care!   In this episode we discuss: How to clean your vulva How to clean your vagina Avoiding fragrance and scent with your vagina and vulva Protecting your vaginal microbiome Products to use in your vulva and vagina What is normal with your discharge   Use the code NOURISH for 10% off your first  Primally Pure order, my current recommendation is starting your day off with the gua sha stone.   My online course on intuitive eating, Permission Stage Playbook, is currently closed for enrollment but you can join the waitlist by clicking here.
