Mostly hot water and a tiny bit of soap on the upper areas.  I stopped soaping up my entire area b/c I was getting weird burning feeling.  Vaginas are self cleaning, I clean my thighs really well though.  So far no odor with only water!

@Kant:  That's kind of what I do too.

I normally use this Summer's Eve feminine wash.  I loved the way it smells.  They usually have a drugstore brand of it, too.  You just reminded me that I should go get some!  I haven't had any in a while, though, so I've just been doing soap and water.  I wash it like I wash everything else.  Normally, I will lather the area up and use my fingers to really clean everything out.  I don't like douching.  I do it occasionally, but don't find that it makes a lasting differnce.  Plus, it dries me out, so I really can't have sex the rest of the day when I do it (well, I can, but it is a lot more work and requires lube).

I don't know about other women, mainly because I'm embarrassed to bring it up, but I have to work extra hard to keep myself smelling fresh.  When I go pee, I have to wipe like twice, then, when I stand up, a little more leaks out.  If I don't wipe again (after I stand up) before pulling up my panties, that little drop of urine will produce a horrible smell in my underwear.  Those little Always wipes smell good and they will keep "it" smelling good between showers.

@Jenn23:  Exactly, I noticed I had itching and burning when I used too much soap around thoses areas.  So it's mostly water.  Maybe my soap is too harsh?

@Kant: I do that to make sure shampoo and other stuff is cleaned out of that area.

@Pinksapphire: i love me some summers eve!! i use the wipes and body wash!

@Miss Tattoo: awe some topic. i was one of the self learning women. my mom never had this talk with me! when i got my period for the first time i though i was dying because no one had ever told me that your suppose to bleed down there!

my school nurse finally informed me what was going on with my body....

Anyway like i stated i use summers eve now, but after i had my son i became a serious doucher. this is NOT good for your body. i had cronic yeast inefections (TMI). my doctor had to put me on a serious antibiotic and told me "the vagina is self cleaning oven!!! DONT TOUCH IT" lol.

URGH WORD TO THE WISE NEVER STICK ANY DOUCHES UP YOUR VA JAY JAY!!

Normal soap and water like I do the rest of my body.

@daydreamwanderer: it is a very very MILD sensitive body wash. All soaps leave a thin layer of soap scum on your skin....that is not healthy for your vajayjay.

im sure you can use body wash and soap like PP but ilike knowing that this is made just for cleaning"her" up

Just a little soap and then the "spread and rinse" like everyone else:)  Kind of un-related but found myself wishing bidets were more common here.  It's just so much cleaner to rinse the bum than use wads of TP.  Also, when I have my period I feel a little messy and musty and would love to do a quick rinse during the day and get rid of that "not-so-fresh feeling"

@PutABirdOnIt: i agree!

that is kinda what "upsets" me. i know all our gyno's say that it is a self cleaning oven....but sometimes that oven isnt the freshiest smelling body part!!

@daydreamwanderer: omg me too! im a cronic poof changer! i was watching oprah and they were saying how much bacteria and and mildew can build up in them!

and no i use my hands....i lather them up and that way i can get all the crevices lol

@Wonderwoman217: That is a genius idea!  I also will sometimes use those Cottonelle wipes but they don't replace a nice, cleansing squirt of warm water.

@Wonderwoman217: TMI and Confession:: i shower after every bowel movement!! like full shower...my FI thinks i have OCD but i have to tell him...those 2 holes are too close together!!
