Vaginal pearls — who needs such a detox and is it necessary?
Pearls, but not on the neck
Pearls are a classic that can be untied. Is that what they say? But some curious, prosperous mind one day decided that a string of pearls around the neck was not enough. It turns out that pearls are exactly what you need. Inside the vagina.

Yes, yes! Vaginal Detox Pearls — What do you think? Few people in Russia have heard of this wonderful invention — the magic medicine can only be purchased on Aliexpress. In the USA, vaginal detoxification has already been tested and found to be very dangerous.
Chinese tampons (also known as yoni pearls) are essentially small candles made with motherwort and wild celery. Using an applicator, they are inserted vaginally for up to 48 hours.
The creators of the miracle product guarantee that the pearl cleanses the vagina of dead skin cells and even glows with the energy of previous sexual partners! In addition, everything “outside” is more moist and elastic.
Stop! Keep your hands in place and don’t rush to order this miracle of modern technology for yourself.
This all sounds nice and promising, but what is it really? In 2019, Pearls for Goddess Vaginal Detoxification was introduced to the Canadian market. The ban was imposed after it was discovered that the manufacturing company advertised the product without checking its quality, safety and effectiveness.
She can handle it herself
The vagina does not need to be detoxified. She”ll figure it out herself. Plus, the vagina is regularly cleansed through detoxification,” explains Kezia Gather, MD. That”s why all those fancy detox products are a waste of time (and sometimes dangerous). These products are often loaded with fragrances and contain ingredients that can cause irritation.
These ingredients include borneol, which is derived from the lagerbarrow tree. Natural essential oils can cause skin irritation, but that doesn”t mean they can”t be absolutely beneficial. People still use tea tree oil, peppermint oil, and lavender oil on their skin. In addition, some stores now sell menstrual pads containing borneol,” says a spokeswoman for Goddess Vagina Pearl.
Essential oils are now truly widely used by people all over the world. However, just because the skin on a woman”s face and body responds well to essential oils does not guarantee that her vagina will be friendly to it, too.
In addition, such drugs can disrupt the acid-base balance of the vagina, increasing the likelihood of developing an infection. Goddess Detox does not have any of this — in the FAQ section of their website they write that their products can actually contribute to the development of yeast infections.

Most people know most items as vaginal balls, but there are those who do not know why this device was invented and how it was invented.
They recommend using boric acid or other natural remedies as a treatment. Gynecologists do not agree with them and recommend that in case of infection, consult a specialist or use over-the-counter medications from the pharmacy.
In the worst case, disruption of the vaginal microflora can lead to toxic shock syndrome. This is a fairly rare but dangerous bacterial infection. Symptoms of ST include high fever, vomiting, diarrhea, rash, sunburn, muscle pain and headache. Even death is possible.
STS is caused by several species of staphylococci and streptococci. Long-term use of tampons and menstrual cups can also lead to TSS.
This is because improper use of these hygiene products creates too favorable an environment for potentially dangerous bacteria.

Outrageous methods
The manufacturer of vaginal pearls also assured that its products will help “erase” marks. Needless to say, such promises are simply absurd?
It”s simply inappropriate. Sexual trauma cannot be cured with vaginal remedies. I have seen many women who have been victims of sexual violence. Maria Sophocles, MD, said: “I have seen many women who are victims of sexual violence.
Her colleague Mary Jane Minkin agrees. “If you need help, see a therapist and don”t buy vaginal detox products.”
A representative from Goddess Detox responded: “I have a friend who is a therapist. It is not a panacea for anything — we cannot guarantee this from a medical point of view. Goddess Detox should be considered an option for women who want to try something more natural.”
Too many promises
As you know, the makers of Miracle Tool also promised that their product would make the vagina “more moist.” Unfortunately, this does not happen. With a proven track record of being a quality sex shop lubricant, Vaginal Pearl vaginal lubricant is definitely not to be overlooked.
“Your vagina will become more elastic and will be able to better grip your penis!” — This is another marketing ploy. Dr. Minkin recommends skipping vaginal pearls and trying good old fashioned Kegel exercises. “This is the best way to strengthen your pelvic muscles,” she says.
The creators of Goddess Detox also claim that eating fast food and foods containing GMOs can negatively affect the health of the vagina. Dr. Minkin says there is no scientific evidence to support this claim.
So what do we end up with? The vagina doesn”t need to be detoxified, Dr. Minkin concludes. It’s enough just to take a shower every day and use mild, tasteless soap. You shouldn’t try to wash everything “squeaky clean” and thoroughly. If a woman is worried about something, she should consult a gynecologist, and not look for a suspicious home remedy.
