Hello, thank you for your comment and for raising an important point! You're absolutely right: the distinction between the vagina and the vulva can be confusing, and it's essential to address it. In the article, my aim was to demystify the idea that the vagina needs to be cleaned with specific products, emphasizing that it is self-cleaning. However, I agree that it is equally important to reinforce that the vulva, which includes the external parts such as the labia, should be sanitized carefully, using water or neutral soaps, to maintain intimate health. I'll include this observation in the text to ensure that this difference is clearer. Thank you for contributing to making this discussion richer and more accurate.
