Thanks Jenny! I'm interested in the lactobacillus vaginalis you mentioned. I'd not heard of it. I'd just been focused on keeping clean and knocking out phantom germs. I'm pretty sure that any flora would be preferable to whatever I seem to be generating ... will definitely try this out.
Julie, taking info from me is probably a case of the blind leading the blind
The surgeon and his helper told me beforehand that my private parts would be self cleaning and there'd be no need to douche. So as time passed my b/f at the time's saying, "Hey, you're getting pretty smelly. Maybe you should douche?" (ever the tactful one). Meanwhile I'm saying no no no, I was told that I'm self cleaning.
More time passed and I'm not smelling so great and thinking that maybe that's just how things are. The b/f is not thrilled at this point and I'm in denial. Then, after a bath all this horrid pooey stuff just fell out of me and I freaked out, thinking it was faeces and I had a fistula.
Took a sample to the doc who tested it and said there was no e-coli. It was just a buildup of cells, blood, natural lube etc.
I was experiencing a fair bit of pain during intercourse for the first few years post-op so the b/f and I had reverted to the pre-op way. Once I got my act together I found that nothing cleans you out like a good bonk ... men actually
do have some uses
