Intriguing is a common practice for many women, but removing hair in the pub can be accompanied by irritability, minor cuts, and hairs put under the skin.

In some cases, such injuries can create conditions for developing skin infections.

According to the American Academy of Dermatology and the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists ( ACOG), shaving, and other methods of hair removal can cause skin damage, so it is important that the procedure be conducted carefully and by respecting hygiene.

How might deforestation affect our health?

A razor shaver can cause redness, burns, irritability, and hair put under the skin. The latter may appear to be small pimples, which may in some cases become infected.

Even waxing can cause irritation, burns, or minor skin damage. If used equipment and materials are not hygienic, the risk of exposure to bacteria and other microorganisms may increase.

However, it is important to make a difference: irritability after deforestation is not the same as a vaginal infection. Depiling may cause problems in the outer skin of the intimate area, but should not automatically be considered the cause of vaginal scratching, unusual secretions, or other intimate symptoms.

How can you avoid irritability and postpiling infections?

To reduce the risk of skin injury, experts recommend some simple measures:

Use a clean razor and don’t share it with other people.

Wash your skin, and use a suitable shaving product.

shave hair carefully, possibly in the direction of their growth, avoiding the multiple razor crossings over the same area.

If you choose waxing, make sure that the person conducting the procedure uses clean materials and does not put the same applicator several times in the wax.

Shun products that cause burns or irritability in the private area.

When should you seek medical help?

If severe pain, swelling, frying, spreading, smell, or fever arise after the extraction, you should seek medical evaluation, which may be signs of infection.

Likewise, if you have persistent scratches in the intimate area, unusual secretions, strong smell, or burns during urination, do not assume that the cause is deforestation. These symptoms may have different causes and may require control by gynecologist.

In the end, the choice to compile or not belongs to every woman. What matters most is skin care, respect for hygiene, and a lack of symptoms that may indicate a health problem.
