Uwahlanza Kanjani Amathoyizi Akho Asecansini - Ngoba, Yebo, Udinga
-Delile
Kunezinto ezithile endlini ozihlanzayo ngaphandle kokucabanga kabili - ithoyilethi, isitofu, ngisho ne-shower floor yakho. Kepha kukhona abanye - njengamashidi akho ombhede - ahamba isikhathi eside kakhulu ngaphandle kokuwasha kahle. Amathoyizi ocansi angena esigabeni sokugcina kubantu abaningi. Thatha izidlidlizi njengesibonelo: Ngokocwaningo lwango-2009, cishe amaphesenti angu-14 abesifazane abakaze bawahlanze awabo ngaphambi noma ngemva kokusetshenziswa. Yikes.
Lokho kuyinkinga. Isidlidlizi sakho singena ngaphakathi kwenye yezindawo ezibaluleke kakhulu emzimbeni wakho futhi, uma ungaqapheli, wonke lawo mabhaktheriya asuka kuthoyizi lakho olithandayo angaholela ekuthelelekeni. (Isaziso esiseceleni: Ungalokothi ubeke lezi zinto eziyi-10 eduze kwesitho sakho sangasese.)
"Abesifazane abaningi abaqondi ukuthi kubaluleke kangakanani ukuhlanza isidlidlizi, futhi ngenxa yalokho, abesifazane abaningi baya kudokotela ngoba banezifo ezifana ne-bacterial vaginosis, ukwanda kwamagciwane esithweni sangasese, noma ukutheleleka kwemvubelo ," kusho uTyomi Morgan, uchwepheshe wezocansi nothisha. Kungakho kungabalulekanga kuphela ukuhlanza isidlidlizi sakho kaningi, kepha futhi nokwazi kahle ukuthi uwahlanza kanjani amathoyizi ocansi ukuze angabeki impilo yakho yangasese engcupheni.
Yebo, lawo mahomoni e-post-O awasizi ncamashi ekukhiqizeni, kodwa kusabalulekile ukuthatha isikhathi ukuhlanza igiya lakho. Ngezansi, bheka ukuthi uwahlanza kanjani amathoyizi ocansi nezidlidlizi, ngokusho kukaMorgan kanye nodokotela wezocansi kanye nothisha u-Rachel Wright, ukwenza kube lula ngesikhathi esilandelayo lapho udinga ukuhlanza izinto. (Futhi uma usemakethe yethoyizi elisha, hlola amathoyizi ocansi ahamba phambili kwabesifazane atholakala e-Amazon.)
1. Khetha imikhiqizo efanele.
Ukusebenzisa isidlidlizi noma ithoyizi elenziwe ngezinto ezingakhiqizi (njenge-silicone, ingilazi, noma insimbi engagqwali) kuphephe kakhulu njengoba ezinye izinto (njenge-latex nerabha yejeli, isibonelo) zingaqoqa amagciwane ezimbotsheni, kusho uMorgan. (Okwengeziwe lapha: Ungalithenga Kanjani Ithoyizi Locansi eliphephile nelisezingeni)
Uma kukhulunywa ngokuhlanza ithoyizi empeleni, ungazama insipho eyisisekelo elwa namagciwane, kusho uMorgan. Kodwa-ke, uma ujwayele ukungenwa yimvubelo noma i-bacterial vaginosis, ungase ufune ukuqhubeka ngokuqapha. “Ngingathi insipho ethambile, engaqholwanga iphephile, kodwa uma ufuna ukuqinisekisa ukuthi ngeke ungcolise i-pH yakho yangasese, sebenzisa okokuhlanza amathoyizi okwenzelwe lolo hlobo lwethoyizi,” kusho uWright.
Zama i-Lelo Toy Cleaning Spray ($10, elo.com), i-Dame Hand + Vibe Cleaner (Buy It, $10, dameproducts.com) noma i-Maude Clean No. 0 (Buy It, $10, getmaude.com) — lezi ezimbili zakamuva ziphindwe kabili njenge-sanitizer yesandla. U-Wright futhi uthanda i-Sweet Vibes Foami (Yithenge, $12, ama-sweetvibes.toys).
Isandla seDame + Vibe Cleaner $ 10.00 sithenge iDameUngathenga nokusula okulula ukuzisebenzisa - njengamaWipehoney's Fresh Wipes (Thenga, $ 10, lovehoney.com) uma usetshenziswe kakhulu ukuvuka bese uya echibini ngemuva kwesikhathi esihle kakhulu.
2. Ikhuhle kahle.
Manje kungenzeka ukuthi uyazibuza ukuthi ulihlanza kanjani ithoyizi lakho locansi noma isidlidlizi, ikakhulukazi uma linenjini noma ama-seams lapho amanzi angangena khona. Okokuqala, kusiza ukwazi ukuthi amathoyizi akho ocansi awangeni manzi, awangeni emanzini, noma awakwazi ukuchaphazeka. . Imikhiqizo emakwe "okungamelana namanzi" noma "i-splash-proof" ingamanzi, kepha kungenzeka ukuthi ayikwazi ukuphatha okungaphezulu kokuhlanza ngokushesha ngesikhathi sokuhlanza, kanti amathoyizi angenawo amanzi noma angenawo amanzi angakwazi ukusingatha imifudlana eqhubekayo yamanzi futhi adakwe ngokuphelele ngaphansi . (Nawa amanye amathoyizi ocansi angangeni manzi laphaya.)
Kungakhathalekile ukuthi hlobo luni lwethoyizi, zama ukulikhuhla ngezandla zakho noma indwangu yokuwasha namanzi amancane afudumele cishe umzuzu nohhafu. Ngemva kwalokho, yibambe ngethawula elihlanzekile. Amathoyizi athile - ikakhulukazi, lawo enziwe ngensimbi engagqwali, ingilazi, noma abicah (ngaphandle kwemoto noma iyiphi i-elekthronikhi) - angahlanzwa ngokuwafaka emanzini abilayo imizuzu embalwa noma ngisho nakumshini wokuwasha izitsha, kusho uWright.
Uma ufuna ukuqinisekisa ukuthi ithoyizi lakho liseduze nokuhlanzwa ngangokunokwenzeka (ngoba, yebo, kungenzeka ukuthi amabhaktheriya namanye amagciwane asinde lapho kugezwa izandla), ungacabanga ukuzama ithuluzi lokukhipha amagciwane le-UV, njenge-UVee Home Play I-UV Cleaner Enkulu (Ithenge, $ 194 $287, ellaparadis.com), ethi ihlanza ngaphezu kwamaphesenti angama-99.9 amabhaktheriya ayingozi ngemizuzu eyi-10. (Nakhu okwengeziwe mayelana nendlela ukukhishwa kwe-UV ukukhanya okusebenzayo kusebenza ngayo.)
3. Ligcine ngokuhlakanipha.
Uma ithoyizi lakho locansi selihlanzekile, ligcine ebhokisini noma esikhwameni esihlanzekile ukuze kube mancane amathuba okuthi liqoqe uthuli. Yenza okusemandleni akho ukugcina ezinye izinto - njengeselula yakho noma izingubo zakho - zikude nayo. (Ukuxhumana okuncane enakho nezinye izinto eziphethe amagciwane, kungcono.)
"Kubaluleke nakakhulu ukuhlukanisa amathoyizi abicah kwamanye amathoyizi abicah - njengoba nje kungafanele usebenzise i-silicone lube kumathoyisi abicah," kusho uWright. Lokhu kungenxa yokuthi uma i-silicone ihlangana ne-silicone, ingakwazi ukululaza impahla. "Uma lokho kusho ukugcina amathoyizi akho ezikhwameni ngazinye, kuhle, futhi uma lokho kusho iziqukathi zepulasitiki ngazinye, kuhle," kusho yena. (Qaphela: Uma ithoyizi lakho liyingilazi noma insimbi engagqwali, inqobo nje uma lisendaweni epholile, ulungele ukuhamba, njengoba lezo zinto zingeke zonakaliswe.)
Isikhwama Sethoyizi Socansi Olubomvu $8.00($11.00) sithenge e-AmazonFuthi, uma uyi-rock star ephelele, zama ukukhumbula ukuyigeza ngokushesha ngamanzi afudumele ngaphambi nje kokuyisebenzisa ngokulandelayo, ukusiza ukususa ithoyizi lanoma imaphi amabhaktheriya okungenzeka ukuthi akhiwe endaweni yokugcina.
