Lemon Leaf Wash
If you cannot find guava leaves, you have an excellent alternative. Traditional medical practitioners also use lemon as an anti-allergy, antimicrobial, and antibiotic agent, including its leaves. The fruit and leaves of the lemon have a compound called limonene. Its potent antibiotic and other properties are particularly effective against the organism that causes candidiasis or thrust. A lemon leaf wash is equally effective in treating leucorrhea (flow of vaginal greenish, yellowish, or whitish discharge), fishy odor, itching, and vaginitis. Further, lemon leaf wash helps regulate the vagina’s pH level and keeps the private parts clean and healthy.
Preparing the lemon leaf wash is easy. First, wash ten tender lemon leaves thoroughly. Next, pour a glass of water into a small pot, crush the leaves, and let it boil until it turns greenish. Allow the decoction to cool to a tolerable temperature, strain it, and use the cooled solution to wash your private parts. According to experts, women should not use soap. If you feel uncomfortable after using the lemon leaf solution, you can rinse it with fresh water.
