A douche is a device used to cleanse or rinse the vagina. It typically consists of a nozzle attached to a bulb or bag that can be filled with a liquid solution. The device is inserted into the vagina, and the liquid is gently squeezed or released to flush out the vaginal canal. It is important to note that douching is generally not recommended by healthcare professionals as it can disrupt the natural pH balance of the vagina and increase the risk of infections. It is advisable to seek guidance from a healthcare provider regarding proper vaginal hygiene practices.
