The best defence against any vaginal discomfort is prevention. Protect your most delicate area with daily use of a special product – VWash PLUS. With a pH of 3.5, V Wash restores to prevent irritation, itching and unpleasant odour in the intimate area. The vagina has a natural protective layer which is acidic in nature, to help prevent infection. This layer is maintained when good bacteria called lactobacilli produce Lactic acid (or milk acid), which maintains the acidic environment at a pH value of 3.5 to 4.5. This promotes the growth of lactobacilli, inhibiting the presence of harmful bacteria and preventing infection. A healthy vaginal flora requires a pH of 3.5. Most soaps are alkaline in nature which have a pH value of 8 & above.
