The vagina needs to be treated with care. It’s the most sensitive part of your body! Yet, you might be wondering how to tighten it. Common reasons include urinary incontinence, sexual pleasure, or physical changes after birth.
It’s possible to buy vaginal tightening creams and gel. But are they even safe? They can lead to these five side effects, so be careful.
1. Irritation
Vaginal tightening creams are full of chemicals – lots of them. This is even true if the product lists Manjakani extract as an ingredient. Traditionally, it’s been used in ancient medicine to tighten the vagina after birth.
There’s a good chance the cream has more than Manjakani extract, though. The chemicals can irritate the vagina, both inside and out. This can make it painful to urinate, walk, or even sit down.
2. Allergic Reaction
What’s worse is that you might be allergic to one of the ingredients. If so, you might develop symptoms of a typical allergic reaction. Examples include rashes, redness, and itching.
These symptoms are bad enough on the skin. But imagine them in the vagina! It’ll be extremely uncomfortable and painful.
If you suspect an allergic reaction, take an antihistamine immediately.
3. Infection
Douching and feminine products are linked to a higher rate of bacterial vaginosis (BV) and yeast infection. A vaginal tightening cream won’t be any better. After all, it’s a cocktail of chemicals.
Placing something in your vagina puts your vaginal pH at risk. It can also alter the bacterial balance, which keeps your vagina healthy and well. If these factors change, you’ll be more likely to develop BV and yeast infections.
4. Hormone Disruption
Feminine products may also disrupt the endocrine system.3 This includes glands like the ovaries, thyroid gland, and pituitary gland.
These glands are in charge of hormone secretion. If they’re altered or damaged, your hormones – the most important molecules in your body – might be in danger.
5. STD Complications
Feminine products can mask the symptoms of a sexually transmitted disease (STD).4 And since vaginal tightening creams are often unscented, it might “dumb down” the odor of an STD. As a result, you might have one and not even know it.
This makes it far easy to delay the treatment. If left untreated, an STD can cause even more damage to your vagina. Plus, if you have sex with another person, there’s a high risk of transmission.
How To Tighten Your Vagina Naturally
1. Instead of using expensive tightening creams, do pelvic exercises. These workouts will strengthen the vaginal wall. It’s like any other muscle in the body.
2. Kegel exercises are your best bet. It calls for the simple act of squeezing your pelvic floor muscles. The more you do it, the tighter your vagina will be.
- To do a Kegel exercise, pretend you are trying to hold in pee or gas. You should feel a “pulling” sensation. If so, you’ve found the right muscles to work out.
- Do this exercise three times a day. Rotate between lying down, sitting, and standing. All it takes is five minutes and some concentration.5
Never put anything in your vagina that isn’t prescribed by your doctor. Otherwise, you might harm your lady parts! By doing natural vaginal tightening exercises, you can avoid the side effects of creams and gels.
