Betadine Feminine Wash Turns Pink In October

Hola, lovelies! Happy Pink October all. Can you believe one out of five females in Malaysia has been reported with breast cancer? Apparently, it is also one of the most common cancer from 2007-2011. Breast cancer used to be a taboo subject for us to address or talk about, but thankfully with the introduction of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, the topic of cancer is something that we have learnt not to shy away from. This year, Betadine® Feminine Wash is supporting the National Cancer Council Malaysia (MAKNA) to #breakthesilence and help more Malaysian women become more aware of cancer prevention. One of the ways to prevent the onset of cancer is to look after your health, as early prevention saves lives. Every single effort, no matter how small, can make a huge difference. 

Staying healthy isn’t just about what you eat and how you live, it’s also about making sure your personal hygiene stays in tiptop shape. The vagina is home to healthy bacteria known as Lactobacillus. These beneficial organisms are essential for the protection of our intimate area’s micro-environment. Under healthy conditions, this good bacteria in the intimate area environment can help to maintain an optimal pH balance, while preventing unfriendly organisms from thriving. In order for the beneficial microorganism to have a healthy population level, prebiotics or good germs play an important role. Most people know that prebiotics are good for the digestive system, but in fact, they can also be beneficial to other parts of our bodies, such as the intimate area.

This is especially important for women’s personal hygiene, as prebiotics help to populate these beneficial organisms in the intimate area micro-environment, thus could help in protecting against feminine discomfort due to pH imbalance. With prebiotics, normal flora of vaginal micro-environment can be restored to help maintaining vaginal health.

Beneficial Organisms (Lactobacilli)	Unfriendly Organisms (Others: Bacteria/Fungi/Protozoa/Viruses)
ü  Help maintain normal vaginal pH 3.8-4.2 ü  Suppresses the growth of unfriendly organisms  ü  Keep vaginal flora in healthy balance	c        Overgrowth can lead to infections in the intimate area c        Can cause infections and disrupt vaginal pH c        Create an unfavourable intimate area micro-environment by displacing beneficial organisms

Ideally, the female intimate area should have a pH level of 3.8 – 4.2. This means that at pH 9 – 10, most soaps and body cleansers available in the market can disrupt pH balance of the intimate area, which can result in infections caused by thriving unfriendly organisms. On the other hand, while water is safe for cleansing the intimate area, it is not always adequate.

For over 50 years, consumers have trusted the Betadine® brand, a household name that offers innovative antiseptic products and protection against infection. Designed exclusively for feminine hygiene needs, Betadine® Tri-Care™ Daily Feminine Wash Foam combines the long-running heritage of the Betadine® brand with the benefits of prebiotics to provide everyday protection and the maintenance of the pH balance of your intimate area.
