Are bubble baths bad for my health?


 


While bubble baths, bath salts and scented hygiene products have been linked to yeast infections, it does not mean taking a bath will result in getting a yeast infection. You should be careful when bathing in the tub, though. Soaking for a long time in bath bubbles mixed with hot water can kill the infection-fighting bacteria in your vagina, which makes it easier for yeast infections to develop (yuck!). Rushing to put on your PJs instead of drying off completely is not good for your body, either, so take your time, sweeties.


But don’t worry, we all need a moment to chill and we’re not about to take away your relaxation time. There’s no need to stick strictly to showers, but you should rinse off with cool water right after soaking in the tub to remove soapy residue from your body. When you’re done rinsing, dry off completely with a clean towel and you’re good to go!

MOD MOD MOD what can u get/do for a yeast infection and how are they caused? and why are they called yeast infections?

 

Hey girly, it may be best to call your doctor and see what medicine they prescribe. These can come about as a result of sexual activity, changes in hormones, an allergic reaction amongst other things. Yeast is what causes the infection. Hope this helps! Smile Smile

I have a tub but my turtle lives in there (we haven't used the tub since we moved in!). I prefer the shower. Cuz in a tub you bath in your own 'dirt' and you can't really wash your hair properly Smile Anyways, good thing to know! My grand-parents have only a tub so when I go on holiday to their cottage, I can remember these facts Smile

okay this is a really awkward question, but I dont know who else to ask. I'm not completely sure but I think I might be bi. I've liked guys before and had a boyfriend, but the other day me and my friends were playing truth or dare and me and my friend got dared to do some things (which I'm not going to go into detail with) and I felt attracted to her since then. I don't know what to think and I dont know who to tell because I'm scared they're going to judge me.




Hey babe! You don't need to figure anything out right now. Don't worry, a lot of girls go through confusing times like this. And it's totally ok either way. Just keep it to yourself for now, until you're sure. You don't need to tell them everything about you and then not end up being bi. That would just confuse them, and you. So take all the time you need to think it over. Is it just that girl you're attracted to or a bunch of girls? And just because you think a girl is pretty doesn't mean you're attracted to her. Like I said, this takes a lot of figuring out, so take you time. And your friends will love you no matter what, so don't be afraid to tell them if you do think you're bi or a lesbian. Good luck! xoxo

All that I know is that you can't get too much soap into your thing, because it can get irritated, and cause infections
