How Being A Male or A Female Is All The Same When It Comes To Hygiene

How Being A Male or A Female Is All The Same When It Comes To Hygiene

Empowering self-care through intimate hygiene is a universal pursuit, transcending gender boundaries. As individuals, regardless of gender, prioritise personal well-being, the similarities in men and women's intimate hygiene routines become increasingly evident. Just as a flower requires proper care to bloom, our bodies thrive with thoughtful attention and gentle maintenance. In the realm of intimate hygiene, Ugees, the undergarment liquid wash, emerges as a trusted companion for all.


Statistics reveal that both men and women encounter similar challenges in maintaining intimate health. According to a survey by the World Health Organization, approximately 80% of individuals experience at least one episode of a genital infection in their lifetime. 


While there are some biological and anatomical differences between men and women, the principles of intimate hygiene are generally similar for both genders. Here are some relevant points highlighting the similarities between men and women in terms of intimate hygiene:


Keep yourself cleaaaann!

Both men and women should practice regular washing of the genital area to maintain cleanliness. Use a mild, unscented soap to avoid irritation and maintain the natural pH balance.


Wipe-wipe, front-to-back!

Women are often advised to wipe from front to back to prevent the spread of bacteria from the anal region to the vaginal area. Men can also benefit from a similar practice to maintain cleanliness and avoid potential infections such as UTIs or Jock Itches (it is very bad, trust us).


Oh come on, let your underpants BREATHE

Both men and women should opt for breathable, cotton underwear to allow proper air circulation and reduce the risk of moisture-related issues.


Why are you still using Harsh products, darling?

Harsh chemicals, fragrances, and dyes in soaps or other products can be irritating for both men and women. It's advisable to use a gentle, plant-based and a chemical free product like ours-Ugees. It is the best liquid wash for your undergarments that keeps all the bacteria at bay and you’d want that!


Seriously,  do you not change your underwear?

Both genders should change their underwear regularly, especially after sweating or physical activities, to prevent the accumulation of moisture and bacteria.


Not all hair is bad, honey

Both men and women may engage in trimming or grooming practices according to personal preference. Maintaining pubic hair at a reasonable length can contribute to hygiene. 


Know, as you must do

Both men and women should be aware of any changes in the genital area, such as unusual odors, discharge, or irritation, and seek medical advice if needed.


Some Additional Tips

Both genders should practice proper urinary hygiene, including wiping from front to back and ensuring cleanliness after using the restroom.


Staying hydrated and maintaining a balanced diet contribute to overall health, which can indirectly impact intimate hygiene for both men and women.


Both men and women should practice safe sex to prevent the transmission of sexually transmitted infections (STIs).


Hence at Ugees, our product stands as a testament to the shared commitment to health and wellness, bridging the gap between men and women in the realm of intimate care. In the words of Maya Angelou, 'My mission in life is not merely to survive but to thrive, and to do so with some passion, some compassion, some humor, and some style.' 

Ugees empowers individuals of all genders to thrive in their journey towards holistic well-being.
