Will Washing Vagina And Pubic Area With Soap Solution Affect The Fetus?
Question: I washed my vagina with head and shoulders 8 weeks pregnant worried about my baby
Brief Answer:
it will not affect the baby.
Detailed Answer:
Hello
Welcome to HCM.
I can understand your concerns.
Using head and shoulders will not cause any harm to your baby. The baby is well protected inside uterus and the cervical os (opening) is closed at this time of pregnancy. So, nothing from head and shoulders will go inside to affect the baby.
Do not worry.
Hope this helps.
Feel free to ask further for more doubts.
Take care.
Regards.
