USE CONDOMS : You know that rubbers are great at protecting against STDs and pregnancy, butone study found that using condoms helps keep your vagina’s pH level at the status quo so good bacteria, like lactobacilli, can survive in there. WEAR COTTON UNDERWEAR OR GO COMMANDO: When it comes to your underwear selection, your vagina has a preference: cotton. That's why most underwear comes with a thin strip of cotton fabric in the crotch. Since it breathes and absorbs moisture, it's the ideal way to clothe your lady parts. WORK IT OUT: Doing kegels is crucial for strengthening your pelvic floor muscles, which are key in producing stronger, mind-blowing orgasms—not to mention bladder control. Note to self: Include kegels in every workout. EMBRACE GREEK YOGURT: Snacking on yogurt with live cultures helps boost the good bacteria in your hoo-ha, which, as you know, is all around fantastic for preventing annoying vaginal problems like yeast infections. ALWAYS GO TO YOUR ANNUAL EXAM: Although new guidelines advise against annual pelvic exams if you're symptom-free and not pregnant, a visit to your doctor isn't just about poking around your lady parts. LUBE UP: SOMETIMES WHEN YOU'RE ABOUT TO HIT THE SHEETS, IT SEEMS LIKE YOUR VAGINA JUST DIDN'T GET THE MEMO. BUT IT'S TOTALLY NORMAL—VAGINAL DRYNESS CAN IMPACT YOU IF YOU TAKE CERTAIN MEDICATIONS LIKE ANTIHISTAMINES, ANTIDEPRESSANTS, OR HORMONAL BIRTH CONTROL.
