"One of the questions I get most from my patients is, 'am I normal down there?' and an overwhelming majority of the time, the answer is yes," said Dr. Mary Jane Minkin, M.D, a board certified ob/GYN. "Women should feel comfortable saying the word 'vagina,' talking about their vaginal scent and discussing with their doctor questions or concerns regarding vaginal health. It is a normal part of life."
Continued Minkin, "When it comes to caring for vaginal area, you want to look for products that are hypoallergenic, paraben-free and are pH-friendly, like the Vagisil Scentsitive Scents line."
