Episode 1: Douching

from The Speculum Podcast · host Ova Woman

In this episode we discuss douching. We explore the history, the current practice and the impact of douching. We also hear from our friend and nurse midwife, Missy Saftner about the harmful effects of douching. We’ll cut to the chase and give you the big takeaway: douching is bad for vaginas. Your vagina isn’t supposed to smell like flowers. If you notice that your scent has changed, see your provider. Douching only covers scent, it is important to figure out the root cause.
