Episode notes
Avoid Porous Toys Or Use Condoms Over Them
- Avoid porous toys like jelly rubber; if you have them use condoms over the toy and replace regularly.
- Porous materials can harbor bacteria and often contain phthalates, so barriers reduce risk but replacement is best.
Mixed Storage Bin Caused Bacterial Vaginosis
- Lena developed bacterial vaginosis after storing many toys together in one bin where they touched and collected contamination.
- Switching to individual bags and a cleaning routine stopped her recurring infections.
Wash Sheets Weekly And Use Towels For Messy Sessions
- Change sheets at least weekly (or twice weekly with frequent sex) and consider towels or waterproof sex blankets to protect bedding from lube and fluids.
- Sweat, bodily fluids, and lube trap bacteria in fabrics and increase contamination if not washed often.
