6 feminine hygiene mistakes that can sabotage your chances of pregnancy 👇

1 Toxic period products: Your vaginal tissue is very sensitive to these chemicals, which can also mess with your hormones. 🩸

2 Not changing out of sweaty clothes: What likes to grow in hot, sweaty environments? Bugs that cause vaginal infections. 💦

3 Wearing plastic underwear: I can’t think of a better way to starve your yoni of oxygen than to wrap it in underwear made of plastic materials. 🩲

4 Using feminine washes (even pH-friendly ones): Hear this loudly. Your vagina is self-cleaning and does not need soap. ❎

5 Taking random (emphasis on random) probiotics: Because there are specific types of probiotics that will support your vaginal microbiome. 💊

6 Using the wrong personal lubricant: Lubes also contain chemicals that can mess with your vaginal pH and prevent sperm from reaching your egg. 🛑

What CAN you do?

Essentially, the opposite of the above. 😅

✅ Invest in non-toxic period products

✅ Change out of sweaty clothes, STAT

✅ Invest in natural fiber clothing

✅ Let your va-hoo-ha be

✅ Take targeted probiotics (especially if you have recurrent infections)

✅ Swap in a TRULY TTC-safe lubricant
