FROM vaginal steaming to labiaplasty, some women are willing to go to extremes to attain the "perfect" vagina.Doctors are warning women not to put toothpaste on their vaginas to try and tighten itNow, ladies are apparently putting toothpaste on their genitals to try and tighten their vaginas.Vanessa Mackay, consultant gynaecologist and spokesperson for the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists said: "It is a myth that toothpaste will tighten the vagina.
He even went as far as saying that using the dental product on the vagina could leave women infertile.: “Toothpaste is caustic and too abrasive for a sensitive body part like the vagina and using such on it can destroy the organisms meant to protect the vagina from possible infections. "Kegel exercises and Yoga exercise are part of the exercises that can make the vagina tight without engaging in harmful practices,’’ Dr Yusuf said.
"To check that the correct muscles are being exercised, women can place a finger or thumb into the vagina and squeeze the pelvic floor muscles at the same time, they should feel a gentle squeeze as the muscles contract.
