From the perspective of preventive healthcare, if hygiene is not taken care of in the 3 days after menstruation, it is easy for bacteria that are not pathogenic in normal days to take advantage and cause infectious diseases in the vagina, such as bacterial vaginosis, fungal vaginitis, trichomonas vaginitis, etc. If these infectious diseases are not treated in a timely manner, they may spread and cause pelvic inflammatory disease.
Most women choose to use topical gynecological medications to treat vaginal diseases at night, but treating vaginal inflammation only by killing bacteria and reducing inflammation at night is not enough. Experts pointed out that using medication only at night usually prolongs the time for treating vaginal inflammation by 3-5 days.
Medical evidence shows that sterilization during the day can more effectively treat various gynecological inflammations. This is because the human body's metabolism is significantly stronger during the day than at night, and vaginal secretions are 5-8 times more than at night. The body's secretions during the day contain 2-3 times more nutrients that promote the growth of pathogens compared to at night. The temperature of the genital area during the day is 2-3 degrees higher than at night, and the reproduction rate of vaginal bacteria is 3.7 times higher than at night.
