Is it OK to use intimate care products that contain fragrance?

Many gynaecologists still do not recommend fragrance-containing products. They may be unaware of our new skin-friendly scents that are formulated with hypoallergenic scent ingredients and are gentle enough for intimate skin. Our products are gynaecologist-tested, so whether you enjoy a scent experience  or prefer a product with no added fragrance like our 0% Wash, there's a Vagisil® product that's just right for you. 

Isn't the vagina a self-cleaning oven?

While the vagina (internal) is self-cleaning, the vulva (the external vaginal area) is not. Gentle cleansing of the vulva with a pH-balanced wash like Vagisil is important for removing common materials like vaginal discharge, urine, and feces that can accumulate daily and cause odour and irritation. These materials are not readily removed with water alone, and vulvar skin benefits from gentle cleansing with a pH-balanced wash

Why do I have vaginal itching?

All sorts of things can cause itch. Everyday things like detergents, pads and liners, pubic area hair removal, friction, sweat, tight clothing, and hormonal changes can cause itching. Intense itching is often a symptom of a yeast infection or other common vulvovaginal infections such as Bacterial Vaginosis (BV) or Trichomoniasis. If you think an infection may be causing itching, speak with your healthcare professional for proper treatment of the underlying infection. Vagisil® creams can help soothe the itching, so you feel relief as you get treatment for the infection.
