Ditch the Soap!: What No One Ever Told You About Vulvar Hygiene and Health”

In this episode, we welcome our very first guest, pelvic health expert Dr. Erin Hardiman, DPT, to unravel a topic most of us never actually learned: vulvar hygiene and health. We talk through the real anatomy, why vaginal pH is naturally acidic, how hormones and life stages affect dryness, and why so many “feminine hygiene” products actually make things worse. You’ll hear what’s normal when it comes to smell and discharge, which products are safe, what to skip, and when to consider topical estrogen with your provider. Perfect for women, parents of girls, and anyone working in women’s health.
