Women should observe the same hygienic practices during menstruation as during other days of the month. Myths abound about menstruation.
Truths, is okay:
Not true:
When you are on your period, you should make sure you wash your vagina more. Also , if you find that there is an fishy smell , try put a bit of deodorant on your thighs.
Unless the fishy smell is like rottenfish because then you have a infection. Normal vaginas smells a bit like fish. And use a soap with PH as close to the skins own as possible.No perfumed.
Hygiene is very important during your menstrual period because during that time you are going through puberty. And puberty involves sweat. And sweat involves stink. Have you ever smelled your armpits during puberty after a good long work out of some kind? Not pretty. So after the day, make sure you wash real good. Thanks bye!
As usual. There is no difference just because you are menstruating.
During a menstrual cycle your body releases a lot of discharge, blood clots and other things. This could cause odour issues or infection so it is best to keep the vaginal area clean.
Hygiene in general is important to stay clean and healthy. During menstruation menstrual flow can change vaginal pH and menstrual flow can also be favourable to bacterial growth so maintaining hygiene and managing flow is all the more important. During menstruation poor hygiene can increase risk of bad odour and vaginal infections, also not changing tampons often enough risks TSS.
Feminine hygiene is important specially during menstrual periods due to the increased risk of bacterial infections during these "periods". Maintaining proper hygiene can be done by using feminine hygiene products such as pads, tampons, washes etc.
There are so many safety tips for personal hygiene. The two most important safety tips are washing hands before touching food and avoiding to touch your hair or face during meal times.
In general it's important to practice good hygiene to prevent odour and stay clean, during menstruation the presence of menstrual blood can increase risk of odour and vaginal infections. If a woman uses tampons there is greater risk of infection and of contracting TSS so she needs to change tampons every 4-6 hours and alternate with pads to maintain hygiene.
Well good hygiene for that is to wash the vagina everyday to keep it clean. Be sure to change your pad every time you go to the restroom. If you use a tampon remember to change it out every 4-6 hours. Always keep the pubic area clean and wash your hands after changing your pad/tampon. Hope that helped
Maintaining hygiene during menstruation is not much different to maintaining hygiene at any other time during your menstrual cycle, contrary to common belief menstruation is not dirty or unhygienic. Wash daily with water only, and use appropriate menstrual products like pads, tampons or cups. Be sure to change your menstrual products at appropriate times, even if not full tampons and pads should be changed every 4-6 hours and cups every 12 hours.
No, conception isn't possible during menstruation. During menstruation there is no egg present to be fertilised, although it's important to point out that a woman may still be fertile during menstruation: there may be fertile cervical mucus present, which can keep sperm alive in the vagina long enough so that there is still sperm present when a woman ovulates after menstruation.
Hygiene is important all throughout one's life, however during the critical years of childhood, one's body has not yet built up immunity to many diseases and thus personal hygiene become crucial. By the time one is an adult, one's body has had time to build it's defenses against many diseases and so while hygiene is still very important to one's health, it is generally less fatal.

No, the egg isn't released during menstruation. The egg is released during ovulation, which typically occurs two weeks before menstruation, if the egg isn't fertilised then this leads to menstruation.
