Certain mistakes after intimacy with your partner can raise your risks of developing infection....CONTINUE READING
According to Medicalnewstoday, below are some important things to keep in mind after making love in order to maintain your health.
1. Wash Up.
It’s not necessary to immediately get out of bed and take a shower. On the other hand, washing your body gently after a passionate encounter might help both sexes avoid conditions like urinary tract infections (UTIs).
Cleaning the region around (not inside) your genitals should only be done with plain warm water. You can use mild soaps, but if you have sensitive skin or an illness, they might dry out the area or make it worse.
2. Empty your bladder.
While you’re doing it, bacteria could get into your urethra, which is the tube that removes urine from your body. Your likelihood of getting sick may rise as a result.
When you urinate, those bacteria are eliminated. So before using the restroom, spend some time cuddling with your special someone. To stop bacteria from spreading if you’re a woman, wipe from front to back.
3. Take a glass of water.
When you roll in the hay, it’s a good idea to urinate, so make sure to drink some water afterwards. Remaining hydrated will cause you to urinate more, which will flush more bacteria from your body before illnesses manifest.
4. Wear Loose-Fitting Clothing
In hot, humid conditions, bacteria and yeast flourish. Wear clothing and underwear that are breathable. Women should refrain from wearing girdles, underwear, and pantyhose that are too tight.
Cotton underwear is the best option for both men and women because it is airy and absorbent. As an alternative, you can also sleep without wearing underwear.
5. Wash your hands.
It’s the best way to clean out bacteria from your own or your partner’s genitalia. This is essential to stopping the spread of diseases. Make cleaning with soap and water a part of your post-romance cleanup regimen.
Bacterias can stick to your hands during intimacy so make sure you wash the hands with disinfectant.
